The objective of this research is to compare the effectiveness of the guided discovery and the less structured discovery methods cognitive ability, free discovery skill, and autonomous character of the Junior High School. Forty Ponorogo Junior High School students have divided into two research classes were involved in this investigation using The Method of Science as the subject matter. The research was implemented in two phase, the development of the discovery learning resources, using the Kemp model, and the implementation of learning resources using the matching only pretest-posttest control group design (quasi experiment). From the hypothesis test (α: 0,005) showed that: (1)Cognitive skill of less structured discovery class higher than guided discovery class (Sig. 0.0025<α). The individual cognitive skill of guided discovery students increased from 20% to 65%, and for less structured discovery students increased from 10% to 80%; (2)Free discovery skill and autonomous character of less structured discovery class not higher than guided discovery class (free discovery skill Sig. 0,467>α; autonomous Sig.; 0,031; 0,028>α)  . Free discovery skill of guided discovery students increased from 20% to 80%, and that of less structured discovery students increased from 10% to 35%. The average percentage of autonomous character of guided discovery students ranges from 64,29% to 90,48%, and that of less structured discovery students ranges from 71,43% to 90,48%. The shortage of time allocation for the teaching and learning process was the main obstacle. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan tipe pembelajaran discovery (guided discovery dan less structured discovery) terhadap kemampuan kognitif, keterampilan free discovery, dan kemandirian siswa SMP. Subjek penelitian sejumlah 40 siswa yang dibagi dalam 2 kelas penelitian di SMP Negeri 1 Ponorogo kelas VII dengan materi pembelajaran metode ilmiah. Penelitian dilaksanakan dalam dua tahap, yakni tahap pengembangan perangkat pembelajaran discovery mengikuti rancangan Kemp dan tahap penerapan perangkat pembelajaran menggunakan rancangan penelitian the matching only pretest-posttest control group design (quasi experiment). Hasil uji hipotesis (α: 0,005) menunjukkan bahwa: 1) Kemampuan kognitif kelas less structured discovery lebih tinggi dari kelas guided discovery (Sig. 0,0025<α). Pada kelas guided discovery, kemampuan kognitif berdasarkan ketuntasan individu mengalami peningkatan dari 20% menjadi 65% dan pada kelas less structured discovery mengalami peningkatan dari 10% menjadi 80%. 2) Keterampilan free discovery dan kemandirian siswa kelas less structured discovery tidak lebih tinggi dari kelas guided discovery (keterampilan free discovery Sig. 0,467> α; kemandirian Sig. 0,031; 0,028>α). Pada kelas guided discovery, keterampilan free discovery mengalami peningkatan dari 20% menjadi 80% dan pada kelas less structured discovery mengalami peningkatan dari 10% menjadi 35%. Rata-rata persentase kemandirian pada kelas guided discovery bervariasi 64,29%  hingga 90,48% dan kelas less structured discovery antara 71,43%  hingga 90,48%. Waktu menjadi hambatan utama dalam penelitian ini sehingga dibutuhkan pengalokasian yang lebih baik pada setiap tahapan pembelajaran.

The reality found in school showed that the teaching and learning experiences were dominated by the use of the Direct Instruction model and there were no activities to facilitate students to think criticaly. Thus, it is necessary to develop  guided discovery learning materials to overcome it. The one group pretest-posttest design was used as a the research design involving 30 Junior High School students. The data were analyzed through descriptive qualitative technique. The results showed that students’ activities were consistent with each stage of the guided discovery learning, students’ responses were good, and N-gain test informed that the students’ learning outcome and their  capability  to use  critical  thinking  skills  increased.  Based  on  those  findings,  it  can  be  concluded  that  the  guided  discovery instructional materials were effective to facilitate Junior High School students by think critically.Kenyataan di sekolah metode pembelajaran yang digunakan lebih berorientasi pada Direct Instruction dan belum  tersedia    perangkat  pembelajaran yang  dapat  melatih  keterampilan  berpikir  kritis  siswa  sehingga  perlu dikembangkan pembelajaran yang berorientasi pada penemuan terbimbing untuk melatihkan keterampilan berpikir kritis kepada siswa SMP.

The misconception of the Solar System topic is still found in students so that it becomes one of the obstacles in the learning process. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of Predict-Observe-Explain-Apply (POEA) learning to change the junior high school students' conception in the Solar System topic. Quasi-experimental research with the non-equivalent control group design was conducted in one of the private junior high schools in Bandung city. Samples were selected based on the test of the average significance of the pretest score of the population. Furthermore, 30 students of the experimental class and 32 students of control class were selected. The research instrument, which consisted of 15 four-tier diagnostic test questions about Solar System were used to collect data before and after treatment. The tests were analyzed quantitatively by using the Mann-Whitney statistical test to determine the significance of the difference in the acceptable conception changes (Acceptable Change) of students in the experimental class with changes in the conception of students in the control class. The results of the research show that the implementation of POEA learning is significantly more effective than POE learning in changing the conception of Solar System topic. The findings of this study can be an alternative for junior high school teachers in planning learning about the Solar System, especially in an effort to change students' misconception about the Solar System.
