Abstract


Blended-Challenge Based Learning, Problem Based Learning, and Discussion-Presentation is a constructivist learning that can improve critical thinking. These three teaching strategies are implemented in the course of General Biology teaching, were evaluated and compared. This study aimed to compare the three learning strategies on improving critical thinking. Critical thinking test, as a measurement tool in this study refers to the WGCTA indicator. The results showed that all three strategies teaching significant improvement in the critical thinking, but there is no differ siginificance between the three teaching strategies, these results indicate that all three of these teaching strategies in similar improvements on student’s critical thinking.

 Blended-Challenge Based Learning, Problem Based Learning, dan Diskusi-Presentasi merupakan pembelajaran konstruktivistik yang dapat meningkatkan berpikir kritis.
