Abstract

The social problem of the 21st century is greater than the complexity of cognitive capacity. To overcome these problems, students need to be provided in the form of learning patterns, namely: textual learning, contextual learning and problem-solving. Student's activeness will arise if the lecturer gives problem-solving to the students in order to develop their mindset and want to express ideas with critical thinking. Critical thinking is an active process and way of thinking regularly and systematically in order to understand the information more deeply, then form a belief about the truth of the information obtained or opinions conveyed. This ability is required by students in this 21st century. The ability to think critically can be improved with the right learning pattern. One way to improve the ability to think critically is to use a learning journal.
