MARINA KHARATYAN, LUSIK VARDANYAN - CONDITIONALS AT THE CROSSROADS OF CONVERGENT AND DIVERGENT THINKING The present research is an attempt to emphasize the current necessity in EFL teaching to reevaluate and reconsider the content of grammar on the discourse level through the core elements of critical and creative thinking. We do not seek to give a resourceful explanation to the concept and theory of critical and creative thinking; our foremost concern is to show how the knowledge of these two types of thinking can be linked to and identified in Grammar instruction. Driven by the pursuit of the 21st century learning goals and requirements and the urgent necessity of developing students’ higher order thinking skills, we seek to explore the impact of these two types of thinking on the quality of students’ academic performance in grammar classes through identifying the reciprocal link between grammar and critical-creative thinking. We also seek to evaluate students’ grammatical competence through determining the extent to which they acquire and master the core elements of grammar through the core elements of critical and creative thinking. We are free of the bias to regard Grammar as a sentence-level phenomenon as this kind of view is incompatible with the notion of competency-based instruction. Through introducing an integrated approach, we propose teaching Grammar in a variety of contexts with the intent of exposing not only morphological and syntactical peculiarities of a certain grammatical phenomenon but also its sociopragmatic aspects. What we should call in mind from the outset is that creative thinking is divergent and critical thinking is convergent. Divergent (creative thinking) focuses on a multitude of choices and solutions since it opens up the mind guiding it through different directions and possibilities; convergent (critical thinking) involves exact information and data, analysis and one possible solution to the problem.

<em>Emphasis on learning in the 2013 Curriculum puts forward the development of knowledge, attitudes and skills of students. The Scientific Approach is believed to be a gold platform to produce quality human resources because the learning process is scientific.As we know in Elementary School learning emphasizes on memorization alone where students must memorize all the material that has been learned.Rote learning is certainly not meaningful for students because students will easily forget what they have learned.The ability that students must possess is one of them is critical thinking.Scientific based inquiry needs to be applied in improving students' critical thinking skills, especially in elementary school.Inquiry-based scientific learning models cultivate scientific thinking skills,developing sense of inquiry and students' creative thinking skills.Through writing about inquiry-based scientific inquiry empirically it can be used as an effort to improve students' critical thinking skills.</em>

The Indonesian National Qualification Framework in higher education requires universities to develop a curriculum that makes students have superior competence with a variety of skills that are in line with the demands of the 21st century, including Critical thinking skills. The main objective of this research is to analyze the practicality of the OR-IPA learning model, which has been developed by design to improve the critical thinking skill of prospective physics teachers on the fundamentals of physics courses. The subject of practical observations was a physics lecturer who used the OR-IPA learning model. The observation sheet of the OR-IPA learning model practicality has been declared valid and reliable by the validators. The data analysis technique uses descriptive qualitative. The results showed that the OR-IPA learning model to improve the critical thinking skill of prospective physics teachers was considered practical (3.69). Lecturers and students can use the OR-IPA learning model without significant obstacles. This research implies that the OR-IPA learning model can be an alternative to improve the critical thinking skill of prospective physics teachers in the fundamentals of physics courses.

Learning trends in the 21st-century require students to have the ability to sort appropriate information from certain sources. To do this, students must have critical thinking skills. One of the learning models that can facilitate students to think critically is a guided-inquiry lab. Thus, the purpose of this study was to quantitatively analyze the impact of the implementation of the guided-inquiry lab model on students' critical thinking skills on mechanics material. A pre-experimental method employing one group pretest-posttest only design was applied to obtain students' critical thinking skills data before and after the implementation of the guided-inquiry lab model. A total of 32 students from a junior high school in the city of Karanganyar, Central Java, were involved as the samples in this study. The data obtained were then analyzed using N-gain calculations. Based on the data analysis, there are 81.25% of students have medium creative thinking skills after being taught with a guided-inquiry lab, meaning there is an increase in the average score of students after being taught using a guided-inquiry lab model. It can be concluded that the implementation of the guided-inquiry lab model is effective to improve students' critical thinking skills

The success of a teaching process cannot be separated from the learning tools used, one of the requirements is that the learning tools must be valid. The success of a teaching process is measured by the extent to which students can master the subject matter presented by the teacher. A learning model is needed that can make it easier to develop critical thinking skills so that a truly valid learning tool is obtained to measure the potential and skills that exist in students. Among the learning models that emphasize the process of seeking and finding is the inquiry model. This study aims to prepare in measuring critical thinking skills of Madrasah Tsanawiyah students. The Learning Toolkit has been validated by 3 experts and will then be averaged to find the final score. The values obtained will be entered into the validation criteria table based on the validation criteria table and the results are that the tools made are very valid and can be used in the teaching and learning process because previously the tools made have been revised several times. Keywords: validity, learning tools, critical thinking skills AbstrakKeberhasilan suatu proses pengajaran tidak terlepas dari perangkat pembelajaran yang digunakan, salah satu persyaratan adalah perangkat pembelajaran harus valid.
