DEVELOPING METACOGNITIVE SKILL INSTRUMENT ON FUNGUS CONCEPT

Abstract

PENGEMBANGAN INSTRUMEN KETERAMPILAN METAKOGNITIF PADA KONSEP JAMUR

Abstract

Metacognition involves critical thinking skills, reflective of the cognitive processes of learners who simultaneously monitor their learning success. This research is aimed to develop metacognitive skill instrument on the mushroom concept of class X students of SMA Negeri in South Tangerang. Development research method / Formative Research from van den Akker (2006) with cycle/spiral process: analysis, design, evaluation and revision, systematic reflection and documentation. The metacognitive skills instrument consists of 12 questions, with the construction of 3 high order thinking skill, open-ended, cognitive thinking questions with 9 questions of metacognitive skills (planning, monitoring, and evaluation). Instruments validated through expert judgment and trial test were limited to 38 students and obtained Cronbach Alpha value of 0.832 (high criterion). The instrument was then revised and  re-tested on 96 learners and obtained by Alpha Cronbach 0.746 (high category). The results of this study acquired an alternative method of metacognitive skills measurement of learners are integrated into the biology of learning in the classroom.
