Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) mengembangkan instrumen penilaian berupa tes pilihan ganda critical thinking dan practical skill yang valid dan reliabel (2) memetakan critical thinking dan practical skill peserta didik SMP. Prosedur pengembangan dalam penelitian ini mengacu pada langkah-langkah model prosedural dari Model 4D Thiagarajan. Hasil penelitian adalah sebagai berikut. (1) Instrumen penilaian IPA berupa tes pilihan ganda terdiri atas 36 item yang fit. Instrumen penilaian IPA berupa tes pilihan ganda telah memenuhi validitas isi dengan expert jugdement yang dibuktikan dengan perolehan indeks kesepakatan (indeks Aiken) yang berada pada rentang angka 0,8 hingga 1,00. Kegiatan uji coba (uji empiris) dilakukan pada 121 peserta didik. Reliabilitas instrumen penilaian IPA mengalami peningkatan dari 0,95 menjadi 0,97. (2) Secara umum, terdapat 92 dari 220 didik atau 41,82% yang memiliki kemampuan critical thinking dan pratical skill di atas rata-rata. Pada kemampuan critical thinking sebagian besar berada pada kategori rendah dan sangat rendah mencapai 49,55% sedangkan pada kemampuan pratical skillsebagian besar berada pada kategori sedang 43,64%.Kata Kunci: tes, critical thinking dan practical skill Developing Science Assessment Instrument to Map Critical Thinking and Practical Skill of Junior High School Students AbstractThe study aims to (1) to developing a valid and reliable assessment instrument in the form of multiple choice test of critical thinking and practical skill and (2) to mapping critical thinking and practical skill of Junior High School Students. This study was research and development (R & D) that refers to Thiagarajan 4D Model. The result of this study are (1) assessment instrument in the form of multiple choice test consist of 36 fit items. The assessment instrument in the form of multiple choice test is already comply with content validity that be proven with Aiken’s index from 0.8 to 1.00. 121 students is be responden in small-scale tryout. Item reliability increases from 0.95 to 0.97. (2) Mapping result image shows that there are 92 out of 220 students (41.82%) who have critical thinking and practical skill in over average. Almost the Pilot Project Junior High School students have critical thinking ability in low and very low category that is 49.55% whereas they have practical skill ability in average category that is 43.64%.Keywords: test, critical thinking and practical skill

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.

Critical thinking is one of the 21st Century skills involved in education and is required of students nowadays. The study investigated the critical thinking skills of Junior high school students from three selected public schools in Region 3, Luzon, Philippines.  Infusion of the critical thinking in Chemistry through selected teaching strategies of inquiry-based, problem solving, collaborative, and lecture methods. CEU-Lopez Critical Thinking Skills Test (2012) with a reliability test value of 0.87 was used to measure the students’ critical thinking skill levels. Triangulation of inquiry-based teaching, problem solving, and collaborative teaching methods was used as an intervention to determine the enhancement of the respondents’ critical thinking skills and academic performance. Gathered data were processed statistically through descriptive and inferential tests.  Results revealed that there is a significant difference in the critical thinking skill levels of Junior high school students in Chemistry. The critical thinking skill levels of the student respondents were highly comparable with respect on their academic performance in Chemistry.  The students demonstrated good knowledge, attitude and performance in Chemistry after the infusion of the critical thinking approach in the intervention. The different teaching strategies utilized in the research were applicable in the enhancement of the critical thinking skills of the Junior high school students in Chemistry.

The ability to think critically is one of the highest levels of ability. Developing critical thinking skills in students is still considered important to be improved in schools so that students are able and accustomed to facing various problems around it. This study aims to analyze the critical thinking skills of junior high school students who are in excellent classes and regular classes. This research was conducted in Bandung Barat. 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.
