Abstract

This research was inspired by the low critical thinking skill and learning outcomr of PGSD students on Mathematics Course at the Bung Hatta University. This study was aimed at describing the effect of applying a Problem-Based Learning model on critical thinking skill and Mathematic learning outcomr of PGSD students at the Bung Hatta University. This was categorized as a Class Action Research. This research was conducted in two cycles. This research had 26 students as a data source. The instrument used was Questionnaire for students’ critical thinking skill, lecturing activity sheets and learning outcomes tests. Based on the data analysis on students ‘critical thinking skill, the percentage of students’ critical thinking in each cycle increased. Students achievement in the first cycle (72.55%) increased in the second cycle(76.77%). Students learning outcomes (57.69%) in the first cycle also increased in the second cycle (84.6%). From the data obtained, it can be concluded that the Problem Based Learning model can increase students’ critical thinking skills and Mathematic learning outcomes. In other words, the Problem Based Learning Model is effective in improving students’ critical thinking skill.
