Development of reqol (real quest outdoor learning) learning model to improve critical thinking skills (criticall thinking skill) in physics education

Abstract

Abstract Learning curriculum in 2013 encouraging students to learn actively (Active learning) and train students to thinking skills needed in the 21st century learning, one of which is the critical thinking skills. Critical thinking skills in Java in the last three years is still relatively low, in addition to the model of learning that continues constantly evolving, demanding teachers to use instructional model inovativ. So do research ReQOL learning model development as one of the main efforts to develop a model that inovativ. The learning model ReQOL (Real Quest Outdoor Learning) is a learning model approach to learning outside the classroom (Outdoor Learning) that can provide real learning experience to students in learning activities. Syntax ReQOL learning model consists of five stages: 1) orienting; 2) Questing; 3) Mapping; 4) Sharing; 5) Evaluating. This type of research is the development of research using a model of development research and Nieven Ploom. Data obtained in the form of criteria for the validity, effectiveness, and student response. ReQOL learning model declared invalid by experts with a value of 90.2% validation criteria predictably very valid, and effective way to train critical thinking skills with high effectiveness criteria, namely 0.75, student responses to the lessons learned with the value 77.25%. So that ReQOL learning model can be used as one inovativ models that can be used by teachers to train students’ critical thinking skills.
