ABSTRAK Metode pembelajaran yang diberikan sangat berpengaruh dalam kemampuan berpikir kritis dan keterampilan mahasiswa perawat dalam mengambil keputusan. Kemampuan berfikir kritis dan keterampilan mengambil keputusan ini merupakan dua hal yang dapat dijadikan dasar untuk melihat kompetensi lulusan perawat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi kemampuan berpikir kritis dan keterampilan mengambil keputusan pada mahasiswa Fakultas Keperawatan. Metode penelitian adalah deskriptif kuantitatif dengan jumlah sampel 151 mahasiswa. Analisis data menggunakan distribusi frekuensi. Hasil penelitian adalah Lebih dari setengah responden (66,2 %) memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis diatas rata-rata kelompok (M=186,19, SD=33,92). Lebih dari setengah responden memiliki keterampilan mengambil keputusan di atas rata-rata kelompok (M=94.92, SD=9.52). Sebagian kecil responden dengan IPK 3.01-3.25 memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis dan keterampilan mengambil keputusan diatas rata-rata kelompok. Sebagian kecil responden latar belakang jurusan IPA memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis dan keterampilan mengambil keputusan diatas rata-rata kelompok. Kemampuan berpikir kritis dan keterampilan mengambil keputusan sebaiknya dimasukkan ke dalam kurikulum akademik sehingga terwujud perawat profesional.  ABSTRACT Methods of learning in nursing students affect the ability of critical thinking skills and student nurses in making decisions. The ability of critical thinking and decision making skills are the two things that can be used as a basis to see competence of nurse graduates. The aim of this study is to identify the critical thinking skills and decision making skills in student Faculty of Nursing, Universitas Padjadjaran. The research method is quantitative descriptive with a sample of 151 students. Data analysis using frequency distribution. Results of the study were more than half of the respondents (66.2%) have the ability to think critically above the group average (M = 186.19, SD = 33.92). More than half of respondents have a decision-making skills in the above average group (M = 94.92, SD = 9.52). A small portion of respondents with a GPA of 3.01 to 3.25 to have critical thinking skills and decision making skills above the group average. A small portion of respondent background science majors have the critical thinking skills and decision making skills above the group average. The ability of critical thinking and decision making skills should be incorporated into the academic curriculum as soft skills to realize a professional nurse.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the methods of clinical accompaniment used by clinical facilitators in practice. The findings of the study also reflected facilitators’ perceptions regarding critical thinking and the facilitation thereof. A quantitative research design was used. A literature study was conducted to identify the methods of accompaniment that facilitate critical thinking. Data was collected by means of a questionnaire developed for that purpose. Making a content-related validity judgment, and involving seven clinical facilitators in an academic institution, ensured the validity of the questionnaire. The results of the study indicated that various clinical methods of accompaniment were used. To a large extent, these methods correlated with those discussed in the literature review. The researcher further concluded that the concepts ‘critical thinking’ and ‘facilitation’ were not interpreted correctly by the respondents, and would therefore not be implemented in a proper manner in nursing practice. Furthermore, it seemed evident that tutor-driven learning realised more often than student-driven learning. In this regard, the requirement of outcomes-based education was not satisfied. The researcher is therefore of the opinion that a practical programme for the development of critical thinking skills during clinical accompaniment must be developed within the framework of outcomes-based education.

ABSTRACTThis research is aimed to know the differences increase critical thinking skills through learning group and individual problem solving in thermochemical material. This research uses a quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control group design and study sample consisted of 103 students, divided into the first experimental (group problem solving) (35 students), the two group experimental (individual problem solving) (34 students). The collected through pretest-posttest. The analyzed with the Kruskal Wallis test, the results showed that the learning problem solving as a group or individually can improve students’ critical thinking skills. Statistical test there are significant differences in the students critical thinking skills thermochemical material between students who received group and individual problem solving. Critical thinking skills improvement with problem solving individual learning higher compared with group learning problem solving.Keywords: problem solving learning, critical thinking skillsABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan peningkatan keterampilan berpikir kritis siswa melalui pembelajaran group dan individual problem solving pada materi termokimia.

This research is motivated by the competence of teachers in preparing poor learning outcomes tests and has not been able to measure high-level thinking skills, especially critical thinking skills. Therefore the researcher seeks to improve teacher competence in compiling tests on student learning outcomes based on critical thinking skills through academic supervision. This study uses a school action research design that has stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. This research was conducted for 2 months starting April 9 to May 17, 2019 for Physics teachers in the 7 target schools. Data is sourced from interviews with teachers and test documents prepared by the teacher. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews and documentation. Data analysis through the stages of data collection, data simplification, data presentation, conclusion drawing. Data were analyzed using assessment rubrics adjusted to indicators of critical thinking skills. The results of this study conclude that teacher competence in preparing tests of learning outcomes based on critical thinking skills has increased from the first cycle with a percentage of 61% with sufficient categories to 76% with good categories in cycle II.

Thinking Ability

Mathematical Critical thinking is one of  mathematical abilities that must be obtained by students. Critical thinking is one of the high order thinking processes that can make concepts in student knowledge.  Students with critical thinking in mathematics learning mostly do rational activities such as interpreting information based on a particular theoretical framework, linking theory with practice, making claims and justifying it, utilizing data in support of argumentation, making relations or relationships between various ideas, asking questions, evaluating knowledge, predict, describe something, analyze, synthesize, and categorize. This study aims to analyze the effect of the Concept-Based Learning Model on the critical thingking mathematical abilities.The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of Concept-Based Learning Model toward mathematics critical thinking ability. The method used in this research is quasi experiment by Randomize Control Group Post Test Only Design with cluster random sampling technique. Indicators of mathematics critical thinking skills measured in this study include providing simple explanations, building basic skills, concluding, making more explanations, and deciding an action. The results showed that the mathematics critical thinking ability of students in the experimental class for the five indicators that being analyze was higher than the ability of students in the control class. A fairly high difference in the indicator showed in give a simple explanation and concluding. and it means that the application of Concept-Based Learning Model significantly influences the  abilities  of students' mathematics critical thinking.
