Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of problem-solving strategies make an organized list on students’ ability of critical thinking in mathematics. This research was conducted at MTs in academic year 2014/2015. The method of the research used quasi-experimental method with control group post test only design. The Subject for this research were 47 students which selected through cluster random sampling technique. Data of the students’ mathematical critical thinking ability were collected thorough test. The results of this study show that students’ critical thinking ability who are taught using problem-solving strategies make an organized list is higher than who are taught using conventional strategies (thitung = 6.18 > ttabel = 2.01). It is seen from the indicators of mathematical critical thinking ability on aspects of the focusing on questions 78.26%, giving reasons 72.88%, drawing conclusion 73.96%, developing other alternative to solve problem 76.04% and aspects Constructing steps of problem solving 74.51%. Whereas, for students who are taught using conventional strategies on aspects of focusing on questions 45.13%, giving reason 58.75%, drawing conclusion 55.43%, developing other alternative to solve problem 51.09% and aspects Constructing steps of problem solving 68.51%. Thus, problem-solving strategies make an organized list significantly affect on students’ ability of critical thinking in mathematics. Keywords: Problem-solving strategies, make an organized list, mathematical critical thinking.
