Abstract

Critical thinking should be given to students as they age in the 21st century. The continued impact of perception shows that there are still many students who do not have the option to overcome their thinking, speaking, and logic skills. Observation results show that many students have not been able to utilize their intellectual ability to think critically. Furthermore, the evaluation questions that have been given by the teacher are not analyticalin nature, resulting in not triggering students to think critically. Problem Based Learning (PBL) is a model of learning that is suitable for stimulatingstudents' critical thinking. The purpose of this research that produces the E-module -based PBL valid, p practical and i effective. Type researchis development research. The Plomp model is the applied model. The results of the study resulted in the level of validity of the PBL -based E-module which was 89.10% (very valid). The results of the practicality level of teachers are 94.17% (very practical) and the level of practicality by students is 86.47% (very practical). The results of the PBL -based E-module effectiveness test show that the PBL -based E-module is very effective. Thus, the conclusion is that the PBL -based E-module that has been developed is very valid, very practical, and very effective.

Highlights

  • Along with the times, science and innovation are developing

Summary

Introduction

Science and innovation are developing. The development of science and innovation is increasing day by day, both directly and by implication, giving a significant impact on several parts of human existence. Instruction plays an important role to work on the nature of HR This is in accordance with learning in the 21st century, every ability needed by individuals so as not to face difficulties, everyday life that is increasingly confusing and full of vulnerabilities, and to survive in everyday life and professions in the realm. The demands of science in the 21st century are to prepare students with different abilities and mastery such as imaginative, creative, assertive reasoning, and critical thinking (National Science Teachers Association, 2006). One of them is the Biology learning process which is a logical and critical field of study, this is to expand efforts to encourage human reasoning. Hasruddin (2009) explains that firm reasoning skills are very important for students to overcome problems and make choices according to logical truths. Firm reasoning ability is very important to be developed because it will help in improving one's life after school (Wijayanti, et al, 2016)
