Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran Discovery Learning Berbantuan LKPD Terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis Siswa Di SMA

Abstract

This study aims to systematically examine the effect of the Discovery Learning model assisted by Student

Worksheets (LKPD) on senior high school students’ critical thinking skills. The research employs a literature

review method by analyzing various scholarly sources, including journal articles, conference proceedings, and

relevant books related to the topic. Data were collected through documentation techniques and analyzed using a

content analysis approach to identify patterns, findings, and trends from previous studies. The results of the

review indicate that the implementation of the Discovery Learning model integrated with LKPD consistently

contributes positively to the improvement of students’ critical thinking skills. This is because the model

encourages students to actively construct knowledge, engage in exploration, and develop analytical and

evaluative thinking skills. Furthermore, the use of LKPD helps structure the learning process in a more systematic

and guided manner. In conclusion, the Discovery Learning model assisted by LKPD is an effective instructional

approach for enhancing students’ critical thinking skills, particularly at the senior high school level.
