The Impact of Discovery Learning and Critical Thinking towards Learning Outcomes of Indonesian History
Abstract
ABSTRACT: The impact of discovery learning and critical thinking towards learning outcomes of Indonesian History. This research aims to find the influence of learning model of Discovery Learning and critical thinking on the learning outcomes of Indonesian History. The research was conducted at the SMKN (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Negeri or Public Vocational High School) 7 in Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia, on the academic year of 2017/2018. The research method used was quasi experiment, with factorial design 2x2. Data analysis techniques used Two Ways ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and Tukey test analysis. The sample involved 72 students, who were selected using "random sampling". The respondent variable consists of critical thinking; and measurements were made using a questionnaire related to critical thinking. The results showed, as a whole, that the students who were treated with Discovery Learning model showed high learning outcomes, when compared to those who were given the Direct Learning model; groups of students who have high learning independence and they receive the Discovery Learning has a higher learning outcomes in Indonesian History compared to those given the Direct Learning; groups of students who have low learning independence and they receive the Direct Learning have higher learning outcomes in Indonesian History compared to those studied in Discovery Learning; and, ultimately, there is an interaction effect between the learning model and the learning independence of the learning outcomes of Indonesian History.
KEY WORDS: Model Learning; Discovery Learning; Critical Thinking; Learning Outcomes; Indonesian History.
