The study was conducted to develop science module based on project-based learning that is feasible to be implemented in science learning and has potency to build critical thinking skills of junior high school students. The study was Research and Development (RD), modified from Borg Gall steps covering only research and information collecting, planning, preliminary form of product development, expert judgment, product revision, and final product. The subjects were 2 expert lecturers (content expert and media expert) and 2 science teachers of SMP N 1 Wonosari. The types of data were quantitative and qualitative. Data were collected by means of SSP validation sheets and disaster preparedness identification sheets. The techniques of data analysis were descriptive analysis of qualitative and quantitative to 5 grading scale. The result of the study shows that science module is feasible to be implemented in science learning and has potency to build critical thinking skills of junior high school students.

Problem-based learning model is a learning model emphasizes on solving the problem as a mean to know the students’ thinking skills and bring learning process more meaningful. But there are some problems in the learning that many teachers still relied their learning practices conventionally in which make students often bored and uncomfortable within the classroom. The purpose of this research is revealing the development of learning practices using problem-based learning model of junior high school students in Indonesia in 2010-2019. This research used qualitative approach and the result shown that problem-based learning model has been used widely and has attracted many first high school students to improve their competencies. Therefore, teachers need to create such innovations based on problem-based learning. Abstrak Problem-based learning atau pembelajaran berbasis masalah adalah model pembelajaran yang lebih mengedepankan pemecahan masalah untuk dapat mengetahui perkembangan kemampuan berpikir peserta didik dan menjadikan pembelajaran lebih bermakna. Perlu diketahui bahwasnya ada beberapa permasalahan yang terjadi di dalam pembelajaran yaitu masih banyaknya guru yang menggunakan model pembelajaran konvensional yang membuat siswa sering merasa bosan dan tidak nyaman dalam mengikuti pembelajaran. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perkembangan pembelajaran dengan menggunakan model pembelajaran problem-based learning oleh para siswa pada jenjang sekolah menengah pertama di Indonesia pada tahun 2010-2019. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif. Hasil yang akan diperoleh adalah model pembelajaran problem-based learning memang banyak digunakan dan lebih diminati oleh siswa sekolah menengah pertama pada tahun 2010-2019. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa penggunaannya memang banyak pada periode tahun-tahun tersebut dan dikehendaki oleh siswa untuk meningkatkan kompetensi mereka. Oleh karena itu para guru perlu mengembangkan inovasi-inovasi baru problem-based learning ini.

In this study students are given a test in the form of questions with critical thinking skills, the problem is used to compare between the superior class and ordinary class. Assessment of the problem using several factors of critical ability include 1) students can not understand the problem correctly, 2) students rush in doing the problem, 3) the students cannot choose the problem-solving strategy correctly and 4) the students work on the problem systematically. Then the matter of critical thinking skills of mathematics is analyzed using quasi-experimental research method to analyze students' critical thinking ability that influence learning result. This study shows the differences in critical thinking ability of junior high school students who are in excellent class and ordinary class. This study shows that superior classes are better in mathematical critical thinking ability than a regular class. The results of this study can add knowledge about critical thinking mathematics junior high school students who are in the class and ordinary class and used to facilitate for educational practitioners in the development of critical mathematical thinking skills.
