Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation of the padlet learning model in enhancing critical thinking and narrative writing skills among junior high school students. Critical thinking and narrative writing skills are crucial aspects of students' academic and literacy development. However, many students face difficulties in developing these skills. In this study, an experimental method was used, involving two groups of students: an experimental group that implemented the padlet learning model and a control group that followed conventional teaching methods. Padlet is a digital platform that enables collaboration and interaction between students and educators in a virtual environment. During the research period, students in the experimental group were given opportunities to work cooperatively in small groups, where each group member was responsible for studying specific materials and sharing information with other group members. They then engaged in discussions and collaboration to produce a final product, which was a narrative writing piece. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the padlet learning model significantly improves students' critical thinking and narrative writing skills. The experimental group showed greater improvement in their ability to analyze, evaluate, and synthesize information, as well as in their ability to organize ideas and develop the plot of a narrative writing piece. Additionally, students also demonstrated improvement in their cooperative work, communication, and problem-solving skills.
