Improving The Ability Of Literation, Collaboration, Democracy Attitude, And High Level Thinking Ability With Learning Based On Theory Of Constructivism

摘要

The ability of literacy, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and higher-order thinking skills is very important for students, but has not been taught optimally in college. Previous research shows that the implementation of constructivist learning theory has the potential to improve literacy, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and higher-order thinking skills, but how much the implementation of constructivism theory still needs further investigation. This study aims to produce a learning model based on constructivism theory that is feasible and effective to improve literacy, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and higher-order thinking abilities and learning devices based on constructivism theory to improve literacy, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and higher-order thinking skills. The model and development procedure used is the Contructivist Instructional Design (C-ID) model of Willis. The model consists of 4 stages, namely (1) define, (2) design, (3) development, and (4) dessimination. The product model developed was validated by content experts and learning design experts. Next, it was tried out to Surabaya State University students. The results of the study show that (1) the learning model developed based on constructivism theory is feasible and effective to improve literacy, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and high-level thinking abilities and (2) learning devices that are developed based on constructivism theory can improve literacy skills, collaboration, democratic attitudes, and higher order thinking skills.
