Penerapan Blended Learning Untuk Peningkatan Kemandirian Belajar Dan Critical Thinking Mahasiswa

Abstract

<jats:p>This study aimed to improved understand independency enhancement and critical thinking of learning students through based blended learning. This research combines classroom action research which refers to Stephen Kemmis and Robin Mc Taggart. This research subject were students of engineering information STMIK Duta Bangsa period 2017 / 2018. This research was conducted in two cycles and each cycle was done in two meetings. Every cycle consisted of 4 steps are preparation, action, observation, evaluation, analysis, and reflection. The subject of this research is the students who took Calculus 1. The technique of collecting data was done by assessing test result and observation, test instrument, observation sheet, and field notes. The data was analyzed by using quantitative-descriptive approach. The study showed that the strategy of blended learning proved to be succeeded in increasing understand independency enhancement and critical thinking of learning students through based blended learning in Calculus 1. This is based on the occurrence of (1) increasing of independency enhancement a rise in their ability college student in learning one who is an independent study prior to the adoption of blended learning is as much as 11,2 % and after the cycle of come to an end the application of blended learning was recorded at 88,8 %. (2) increasing in their ability college students to critical thinking between prior to the adoption of blended learning is as much as 12,4 % and over the course of his shift to be over the application of a notebook detailing the development strategy blended learning was recorded at 91,2 %Keywords: Blended Learning, independent learning, critical thinking</jats:p>

Profile of Blended Learning Implementation in Learning Activities

“…The learning environment in blended learning has several advantages that can help students learn. Several advantages that have been synthesized from previous studies include: blended learning provides support in the self-paced learning process (Sandi, 2012;Hermawanto et al, 2013;Farida & Indah, 2018), blended learning facilitate collaborative learning (support collaborative learning) (Putra & Fitrayati, 2021;Wahyunita & Subroto, 2021;Yennita & Zukmadini, 2021), blended learning also supports ongoing discussion activities during learning (support discussion) (Ningsih et al, 2018;Suana et al, 2017;Suana et al, 2019a), as well as support for a blended learning environment that allows students to build their knowledge (support knowledge construct) (Syarif, 2012;Alfi et al, 2016;Suana et al, 2017;Farida & Indah, 2018;Sugiarti et al, 2021).…”

“…Blended learning allows students to learn from various sources (Syarif, 2012;Alfi et al, 2016;Suana et al, 2017;Wright, 2017); and allows students to manage their learning (Sandi, 2012;Hermawanto et al, 2013;Farida & Indah, 2018). The learning environment in blended learning also allows learners can access various learning resources such as learning videos, learning materials, student activity sheets, and other learning resources anytime and anywhere (Anggraeni et al, 2019;Sugiarti et al, 2021).…”

“…However, blended learning is not without obstacles and criticisms. From on the literature study from previous research, it is known that there are several obstacles in the implementation of blended learning, including the management of the blended learning environment requires careful planning (Farida & Indah, 2018) so that learning activities can be carried out optimally. Furthermore, blended learning requires very diverse media, so if the facilities and infrastructure do not support it, it is difficult to implement (Husamah, 2014).…”

Efektivitas Blended Learning Pada Mata Kuliah Bahasa Indonesia

“…Interaksi yang terjadi dalam blended learning dapat menunjang perubahan kognitif yang terjadi pada mahasiswa (Fitriana, 2017). Blended Learning dapat meningkatkan kemandirian belajar mahasiswa (Farida & Indah, 2018).…”

Efektivitas Model Pembelajaran Blended Learning dalam Meningkatkan Kemandirian dan Hasil Belajar Peserta Didik pada Masa Pandemi Covid-19

“…Uz & Uzun (Uz & Uzun, 2018) juga menyatakan bahwasanya Blended Learning berpengaruh terhadap kemandirian belajar yang ditunjukkan dengan skor kemandirian belajar kelas eksperimen lebih unggul dari kelas kontrol. Diperkuat lagi oleh (Fitriasari & Sari, 2017) dan (Farida & Indah, 2019) yang berhasil membuktikan bahwa kemandirian belajar dapat mengalami peningkatan akibat adanya implementasi model Blended Learning.…”
