Abstract
Critical thinking skills is one of 21st century skill. This requires students to solve the problems they face. Therefore, it need a test instrument that can assess students' critical thinking skills. This study aims to develop instrument test of critical thinking skills of high school students by two tiers test format related to temperature and heat concept. The research method used was the ADDIE development model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) conducted by 11th grade high school students who have studied temperature and heat concept. The number of respondents of research as many as 30 students in 11 grade senior high school in Bandung. Data collection using the Halpern framework critical thinking skill instrument test adapted by Tiruneh by two tiers test format. The results obtained that the test instrument of critical thinking skills related to temperature and heat concept by two tier test format can assess students' critical thinking skills. Thus, the development of critical thinking skill test by two tier test format has the potential to be one of the test instrument for assessing and trained students' thinking skill.
Highlights
Permendikbud number 104 year 2014 stated that "assessment of learning outcomes by educators conducted on the mastery of the level of competence as a learning achievement and assessment of learning outcomes by educators implemented using assessment instruments." The statement shows that the competence of critical thinking skills as one of the goals of achievement in physics learning should be assessed during and after The learning process took place, it takes an instrument that will be used to assess and obtain quality data or information right and correct about the picture of quality development and the achievement of students' critical thinking skills
Based on the results of the literature review, the instrument that assesses the critical thinking skills of Halpern Critical Thinking Assessment (HCTA) students developed by Halpern (1998) is still general
The research focused on the development of instrument test to measure critical thinking skills for physics lesson in high school
Summary
According Liliasari, there are four high-level thinking patterns, namely critical thinking, creative thinking, problem solving and decision making [1]. Critical thinking skills are deep and reflective in making decisions and solve the problems to analyze situations, evaluate arguments and conclude precisely [2]. With five critical thinking indicators namely reasoning, hypothesis testing, argument analysis, likelihood and uncertainty analysis and problem solving and decision making [3]. Critical thinking can be developed in learning and must be supported by evaluations or tests that reflect critical thinking because evaluation or testing is an integral part. The use of appropriate instrument or critical thinking skills assessment with continuity training can sequence and develop students’ critical thinking skills. The test developed is physically charged to the material on magnetic material in the form of paper and pencil test
