PENGARUH LEARNING CYCLE 7E TERHADAPKEMAMPUAN PEMECAHAN MASALAH MATEMATIS DANKEMAMPUAN BERPIKIR KRITIS SISWA SMPMUHAMMADIYAH 1 CILACAP
This research aimed to find out the effectiveness of the 7E Learning Cycle mathematical problem solving ability and the ability of critical thinking ability in SMP Muhammaduyah 1 Cilacap in the academic year of 2016/2017. The research variables consisted of three variables, namely the independent variable in the form 7E Learning Cycle and the dependent variable in the form of mathematical problem solving ability and critical thinking skills. The population in this study is the eighth grade students of SMP Muhammadiyah 1. Sampling was done by cluster random sampling technique. The instruments used in data collection in the form of a test sheet. After an experimental class to get treatment, the obtained average post test results of mathematical problem solving ability in the experimental class and control class amounted to 78.18 at 72.23. The average critical thinking skills of students in the experimental class and control class amounted to 75.33 at 70.13. Data were analyzed using t test. Based on the results of hypothesis testing showed that dengann a 0.05 was obtained sig. (2 tailed) 0,001 problem solving abilities and critical thinking skills of 0.007. Therefore sig. The second ability <0.05 can be concluded that the Learning Cycle 7E affects the ability of mathematical problem solving and critical thinking of students of SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Cilacap.
