Abstract |
This paper described a study that utilised Problem-Based Learning (PBL) to help and improve students’ critical thinking skill in Projectile motion. The target group was 22 students in grade 10 from a class in Surin, Thailand. Lesson plans were designed by using a PBL model (Walsh, 2005).There were 5 lesson plans on Projectile motion in four weeks following the seven steps of PBL: 1) identify the problem, 2) explore pre-existing knowledge, 3) generate a hypotheses and possible mechanisms, 4) identify learning issues, 5) self-study, 6) re-evaluation and application of new knowledge to problem, 7) assessment and reflection on learning. The scenario of Killing Caroline Byrne, the true story in Australia, was used as a situation for students to think and solve using the Projectile motion concept. A critical thinking skill test was developed consisted of 2 items as used as a pre-test and post-test to assess students’ critical thinking. Students’ critical thinking skills were analyzed based on the rubric score created by researcher. Findings indicate that students had developed all six critical thinking skills (ordered from the best to the worst) explore data, analyze data, identify the problem, generate hypothesis, make a conclusion, and evaluation a conclusion. |
