Pengaruh Means Ends Analysis Berbantuan Edulastic terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis dan Hasil Belajar Siswa SMA Materi Usaha dan Energi

Abstract

Low quality of education is influenced by learning models and the use of assessment media that lack innovation or are not student-centered. This affects students' critical thinking skills and learning outcomes, one of which is in the physics subject on the topic of work and energy. Critical thinking skills are the ability to analyze problems and statements of truth through cognitive processes and reflective thinking. Meanwhile, learning outcomes serve as a reference for determining the extent to which students have successfully mastered the material they have studied. The research was conducted at SMAN Jenggawah, with sample selection using purposive sampling and an experimental research design in which there were a control class and an experimental class. The research design used was a Pretest–posttest control group design. The data on critical thinking skills were collected based on 5 indicators and 12 sub-indicators of critical thinking skills. The learning outcome data were collected based on 6 cognitive processes and 4 knowledge dimensions. The results of the study showed that the average posttest score of the experimental class was higher than the average posttest score of the control class. Based on the statistical test results, namely 0.009 for critical thinking skills and 0.006 for learning outcomes, it can be concluded that there is a difference in the average scores between the experimental class and the control class. There is an effect of the Means Ends Analysis learning model assisted by the Edulastic E Assessment media on senior high school students' critical thinking skills and learning outcomes in the topic of work and energy.
