Abstract
Critical thinking skills are skills needed in the modern era, especially in the industrial era 4.0, as today, having critical skills will facilitate students in solving problems in life. The purpose of this study is to design statistical material for RME-based teaching materials to improve students' critical thinking skills. The method used in this study is ADDIE. In the ADDIE method, there are five stages; (1) Analysis, (2) Design, (3) Development, (4) Implementation, and (5) Evaluation. This research is only limited to analysis and design. The subjects in this study were seventh-grade students at Patuk 4 Public Middle School. Data collection instruments include observation sheets and interview guidelines and validation sheets. The results of this study indicate that the design of teaching materials has been adapted to the characteristic of students using the ADDIE method. The design includes cover, preface, concept map, Core Competencies (KI), Basic Competencies (KD) and Competency Achievement Indicators, table of contents, module activities, evaluation, and summary. Teaching material in statistical learning is based on RME steps to improve students' critical thinking skills. This research can be continued at the development, implementation, and evaluation stages in learning.
Highlights
Critical Thinking is a process that involves reasoning and analysis to conclude [1][2]
Critical thinking is one of the foundations of the 21st century's closeness. 21st Century skills are a set of skills that must be possessed by individuals, especially students because it will help succeed in college, work, and life in the information age [4], in this case, schools can become facilitators to instill 21st-century skills
The product that will be developed in this research is for improving student's critical thinking skills for class VII, namely designing learning modules based on Realistic Mathematics Education (RME)
Summary
Critical Thinking is a process that involves reasoning and analysis to conclude [1][2]. Students are expected to think rationally and logically when solving a problem. The lack of critical thinking skills will make it difficult for students to solve High Order thinking Skill (HOTS) type problems. The fact that student's critical thinking skills in Indonesia are still relatively low. It can be seen from the results of the 2015 PISA (Program for International Student Assessment). The cause of the low skills of students in solving problems is the lack of emphasis to develop critical thinking skills in learning mathematics when at school [14]. Based on the results of observations made by researchers, the cause of low critical thinking skills of students, especially in class VII in Patuk Gunung Kidul.
