Alfanisa Dwi Pramudia Wardani; Wirawan Fadly; Juan David Martinez Zayas – Journal of Science Learning, 2024
One of the points of science learning is to extend students' competence, counting problem-solving and analytical thinking. Conditions within the field appear that most students encounter trouble in fathoming relevant issues including the application of science concepts in real-world circumstances. This condition appears the require for compelling…

Lapuz, April Mercy E.; Fulgencio, Marlon N. – Online Submission, 2020
Problem-based learning (PBL) is a pedagogy where students gain knowledge about a subject through solving an ill-structured problem. Critical thinking skills (CTS) are the capacity to think about what to do or what to consider by an individual. This study sought to decide if using Problem-based Learning (PBL) improves the critical thinking skills…
