Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyse the enhancement student's critical thinking and metacognition after the implementation Vee diagram in Problem Based Learning. This study applies quasi experimental method with matching pretest and posttest control group design. There are 74 studentsfrom two classes of grade eleven as the participants of this research. Data was collected through essay test (non objective questions)taken frompretest and posttest. Data from pretest and posttest were analyzed using N-gain and Pearson correlation test.Dataanalysisshows that acquisition score N-gain critical thinking and metacognition of experimental group in human respiratory system higher than control group. Indicators of critical thinking on inference, basic support, tactic and strategy of experiment group are at higher category, whereas elementary clarification and advance clarification are at medium category. Metacognition indicators of procedural knowledge, declarative knowledge, conditional knowledge, monitoring comprehension, planning, and evaluation are at high category, and cognition regulation and debugging strategy of experimental class are at medium category. Analysis of Pearson correlation shows that there are strong correlation between critical thinking and metacognition in experimental group, and medium correlation in control group
