SKRIPSI INVESTIGATING CRITICAL THINKING PROCESS OF PROJECT-BASED LEARNING IN EXTENSIVE READING COURSE AMONG ENGLISH EDUCATION STUDENTS AT UNIVERSITAS TIDAR
In the realm of higher education, Universitas Tidar implemented project-based
learning in the Extensive Reading Course. Highlighting that the implementation
faces several problems, where the students have not demonstrated the ability to
engage in the critical thinking process at an ideal level. In addition to completing
the final project for the Extensive Reading Course, students have shown limitations
in their ability to evaluate specific topics and read texts on multiple levels.
Given the problems mentioned above, this study has two objectives. The
first objective is to investigate how do English education students currently engage
with the critical thinking process during their final project for the Extensive
Reading Course. The second objective is to find out what factors influence the
development of critical thinking skills among English education students.
To achieve the stated objectives, this research adopts a mixed-methods
approach utilizing a convergent parallel-database design. Specifically, the
quantitative data were collected through questionnaires administered to 43 students,
and the qualitative data were collected through interviews conducted with 10
students who are engaged in completing the final project for the Extensive Reading
Course. Then, both results from quantitative and qualitative was converged by
comparing and contrasting the data to one overall interpretive framework to find
out if there are any similarities or differences.
