Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of the cooperative learning model with Time Token assisted by Picture Puzzle on the critical thinking skills of fifth-grade students in the science subject at SDN 21 Ampenan during the academic year 2022/2023. This research falls under the quantitative category, employing an experimental method. The population and sample consist of 46 students, with 23 students in the control group and 23 students in the experimental group. Based on the written test results conducted by the researcher, the students in the experimental group had pre-test scores ranging from 45 to 85, and post-test scores ranging from 60 to 100. Meanwhile, in the control group, pre-test scores ranged from 45 to 80, and post-test scores ranged from 50 to 80. Data collection utilized a critical thinking skills test in the form of multiple-choice and open-ended questions. The research findings indicate that the hypothesis testing results yield a significance value of 0.000, which is less than 0.05. Consequently, Ho is rejected, and Ha is accepted. This suggests that there is a significant difference in the average scores of students taught using the cooperative learning model with Time Token assisted by Picture Puzzle in comparison to their critical thinking abilities.
