Pembelajaran Konsep Mekanika Fluida Statis Berbantuan Praktikum Virtual Dalam Mengembangkan Keterampilan Berpikir Kritis Mahasiswa Calon Guru Matematika
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the achievement of critical thinking skills of students through
virtual lab assisted learning in preservice teachers of mathematics. The method used is
weak experiment with the design of the study "one group pretest-posttest design". The
research was conducted on the subject for the static fluid level mathematics preservice
teachers university sector in the city of Cirebon academic year 2016/2017. The research
subjects consisted of one class with the number of samples respectively of 23 preservice
teachers of mathematics. The data obtained in this study is data critical thinking skills that
include identifying the relevant issues, defines the subject matter, giving the reasons of the
experiment, using a strategy logically, doing the things done tentatively, summarized by
considering the situation and then decide, answered questions about the facts, report is
based on observations, consider the appropriate procedures, involving a bit of conjecture
based on those events - events and report experimental generalization. Research hypothesis
testing is done by using the t test on the N-gain critical thinking skills after learning to use
the virtual lab. The results of data analysis showed critical thinking skills gain of 0.58
(moderate). From this analysis it can be concluded that learning-based virtual lab for
preservice teachers of mathematics can significantly improve the critical thinking skills of
preservice teachers of mathematics. Besides, in general, the students give a positive
response to learning to use the virtual lab.
