Pengaruh Think Pair Share (TPS) terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis Siswa Mata Pelajaran IPAS Kelas IV
Abstract
The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of the Think Pair Share (TPS) learning model on the critical thinking abilities of fifth-grade students studying Natural and Social Sciences. The study approach is quantitative, with a quasi-experimental design. The research participants were fourth-grade students at SDN Duren Jaya XII divided into the experimental group and the control group. The sampling method used was equalsize cluster random sampling. The experimental groups received treatment using the TPS model, while the control groups received treatment using the traditional model. The data was obtained using the six aspects described by Robert H. Ennis, which include an overview, reason, clarity, situation, concentration, and conclusion. The study discovered that students who were taught using traditional methods. The study revealed that students who learned using the TPS model showed better critical thinking skill compared to students who learned with traditional methods. Can be seen from an independent t-test yielding a t value of 2,084 and a Sig value (2-tailed) yielding a 0,04. This proves significant difference in critical thinking ability between pupils utilizing the TPS. This study concludes that the TPS learning technique enhances students' critical thinking capacities in Natural and Social Sciences disciplines. Thus, the use of TPS as an alternative teaching strategy could be useful for the 21st century.
