ABSTRACT

Learning in principle is building one's reasoning process. Textbooks used as learning media for students are often helpless in training their thinking skills. One way to help students' reasoning process is critical thinking activities through reasoning tasks, aiming to achieve the learning objectives. The purpose of this study is to determine the cognitive achievement based on KKM (Minimum Completeness Criteria), and the classical completeness of critical thinking through reasoning tasks in physics learning. This research is quantitative, with an ex post facto design method. The research was conducted at Islamic Senior High School (MAN) 1 Bangkalan from a population of 125 students, and then 33 of students were selected as samples. The research instruments used were questionnaire and cognitive achievement test. The result of the questionnaire about understanding the material concept with a percentage level of 80 % means that students have a very good understanding. The learning achievements of students' cognitive achievement are able to exceed the minimum completeness criteria, but unable to achieve classical completeness.
