This research aims to examine the effectiveness guided inquiry learning model based on blended learning on reaction rate material to improve students' critical thinking skills. The design in this research is the One Group Pretest and Posttest Design. The subjects in this research were students of SMAN 1 Kalitidu Bojonegoro in class XI IPA 1. The method used to collect data was the test, observation, and student response questionnaires. Data analysis used the percentage, mean, N-Gain, and Paired sample t-test. The results showed that the guided inquiry learning model based on blended learning was carried out well with an average percentage of the implementation of phase 1 was 98%, phase 2 was 93.76%, phase 3 was 100%, phase 4 was 93.75%, phase 5 was 100%. The average score of the N-gain critical thinking skills is 0.73 with the high category. There is a significant difference in the results of critical thinking skills between before and after being given a guided inquiry learning model based on blended learning. The results showed the guided inquiry learning model based on blended learning effectively improving students' critical thinking skills. Efektivitas Inkuiri Terbimbing Berbasis Blended Learning dalam Meningkatkan Keterampilan Berpikir KritisPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji keefektifan model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing berbasis blended learning pada materi laju reaksi dalam meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir kritis peserta didik. Design pada penelitian ini adalah One Group Pretest and Posttest Design. Sasaran dalam penelitian ini yaitu peserta didik XI IPA 1 SMA Negeri 1 Kalitidu Bojonegoro. Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan berupa tes, observasi dan angket respon. Analisis data menggunakan teknik persentase, mean, n-gain, dan uji Paired Sample T-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing berbasis blended learning terlaksana dengan baik dengan rata-rata persentase keterlaksanaan fase 1 sebesar 98%, fase 2 sebesar 93,76%, fase 3 sebesar 100%, fase 4 sebesar 93,75%, fase 5 sebesar 100%. Nilai rata-rata N-gain kemampuan berpikir kritis adalah sebesar 0,73 dengan kategori tinggi. Terdapat perbedaan hasil keterampilan berpikir kritis yang signifikan antara sebelum dan sesudah diberikan model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing berbasis blended learning. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing berbasis blended learning efektif untuk meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir kritis peserta didik.

Abstract The objective of this research was to evaluate the need for blended learning development to enhance the critical thinking of students. Selected by using multistage random sampling, the 450 samples comprised of 376 vocational students and 69 teachers at vocational level. The research instrument used was a needs evaluation form, which was necessary to improve blended learning to enhance critical thinking. The index of consistency (IOC) was between 0.56-1.00, and the total reliability was 0.94. The research was conducted and data collected from July 2018 to August 2018. 445 completed evaluation forms, 98.88% of the total sent out, were returned to researchers. Frequency, percentage, PNI(Modified), and content analysis were used to analyze the data. The research results showed that the vocational students and teachers agreed on the same point that there should be development of student critical thinking skills. This development should comprise of critical thinking skills, learning achievement, and learning management. The recommendations made for improvement were to increase discipline within educational institutes, and to change and add facilities to support modern learning styles. Testing styles should be modern and correspond to student contexts. Moreover, learning styles should be improved to be up-to-date and to correspond to students’ needs and their real lives.

The results of the observation showed that there were still many students in histology subjects who did not yet have critical thinking competencies and maximum histology concept. The purpose of this study was to find out how project-based learning through blended learning can develop critical thinking skills and student histology concept. This type of research is classroom action research. The sample of this study was students of class C histology class 2018/2019 as many as 35 students of Malang Muhammadiyah University. The research method is in the form of observation, interviews, and tests. The learning management system used in this research blended learning uses Edmodo. The results showed that there was a change in the improvement of critical thinking skills and student histology concept from cycle I to cycle II. Critical thinking skills in the cycle I showed that 23% were complete and 77% were non-complete, while the cycle II was 80% complete and 20% non-compete. Critical thinking skills from cycle I to cycle II increased by 57%. Histology concept in the cycle I found 69% complete and 31% non-complete, while the cycle II was 100% complete and 0% non-complete. Histology concept from cycle I to cycle II increased by 31%. Based on this, project-based learning through blended learning can develop critical thinking skills and student histology concept.

Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mendeskripsikan keefektifan pembelajaran berbasis proyek pada materi statistika ditinjau dari prestasi belajar, kemampuan berpikir kritis, dan kepercayaan diri siswa SMP kelas VII. Pembelajaran berbasis proyek terdiri dari enam langkah yaitu: (1) penentuan proyek; (2) perancangan langkah-langkah penyelesaian proyek; (3) penyusunan jadwal pelaksanaan proyek; (4) penyelesaian proyek dengan fasilitasi dan monitoring guru; (5) penyusunan laporan dan presentasi/publikasi hasil proyek; dan (6) evaluasi dan hasil proyek. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VII SMPN 1 Yogyakarta. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah tes prestasi belajar, tes kemampuan berpikir kritis, angket kepercayaan diri, dan lembar observasi keterlaksanaan pembelajaran. Uji hipotesis menggunakan uji proporsi Z pada taraf signifikan 95% (α = 5%). Berdasarkan hasil uji hipotesis diperoleh proporsi siswa yang prestasi belajarnya telah mencapai KKM lebih dari 75%. Proporsi siswa yang memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis dan kepercayaan diri pada kategori minimal “baik” lebih dari 75%. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa pembelajaran berbasis proyek efektif ditinjau dari prestasi belajar, kemampuan berpikir kritis, dan kepercayaan diri siswa. The effectiveness of project-based learning viewed from students’ learning achievement, critical thinking skill, and self-confidenceAbstractThe purpose of this study was to describe the effectiveness of project-based learning in statistical material viewed from learning achievement, critical thinking skills, and self-confidence of seventh-grade junior high school students. Project-based learning consists of six steps: (1) determining the project; (2) designing project completion steps; (3) preparing the project implementation schedule; (4) completion of the project with facilitation and monitoring from the teacher; (5) preparation of reports and presentation/ publication of project results; and (6) evaluation and results of the project. The population in this study was seventh-grade students of SMP 1 Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The instruments used were a learning achievement test, a critical thinking ability test, a self-confidence questionnaire, and an observation sheet of learning accomplishments. Hypothesis testing uses the proportion Z test at a significant level of 95% (α = 5%). Based on the results of the hypothesis test, the proportion of students who have learning achievement reached KKM was more than 75%. The proportion of students who have critical thinking skills and self-confidence in the minimum category of "good" was more than 75%. Thus it could be concluded that project-based learning was an effective view from students’ learning achievement, critical thinking skills, and self-confidence.
