Abstract

This research aims to determine the influence of reciprocal teaching learning aided concept maps to students critical thinking skills in learning biology. The design of the study is a quasi-experimental design with research subjects in class X student of Agricultural Product Processing Technology (TPHP) and class X student of Fishery Products Processing Technology (TPHPi). Differences of the students critical thinking skills in the both class analyzed by using Anacova test. The results showed that there is an positive effect of reciprocal teaching learning aided concept maps to the critical thinking ability of students. The critical thinking of students’ in the experimental class (average percentage of critical thinking skills of students 73,36%) was higher than the control group (average percentage of students' critical thinking skills 53,20%). From the results of the study it can be concluded that the application of reciprocal teaching learning aided concept maps can enhance students’ critical thinking skills in learning biology.
