Abstract

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan pengaruh langsung dan tidak langsung faktor pengetahuan, kemahiran aplikasi dan keupayaan imaginasi terhadap kemahiran berfikir pelajar tingkatan enam di Tawau. Kajian ini melibatkan 388 orang pelajar tingkatan enam daerah Tawau yang dipilih secara rawak sebagai sampel kajian. Instrumen kajian ini diubahsuai daripada Instrumen Kecerdasan Holistik (IKH) dan Instrumen Kemenjadian Pelajar (IKP). Analisis data kajian dijalankan menggunakan perisian Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) dan Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Dapatan kajian menunjukkan terdapat pengaruh langsung yang signifikan antara keupayaan aplikasi pengetahuan dan keupayaan imaginasi terhadap kemahiran berfikir pelajar. Manakala faktor pengetahuan menunjukkan pengaruh langsung yang tidak signifikan kepada kemahiran berfikir pelajar. Walau bagaimanapun, faktor pengetahuan menunjukkan pengaruh tidak langsung yang signifikan terhadap kemahiran berfikir apabila digabungkan dengan keupayaan imaginasi. Dapatan kajian juga menunjukkan pembolehubah pengetahuan dan kemahiran aplikasi menyumbang 55 peratus kepada keupayaan imaginasi. Manakala ketiga-tiga variabel bebas ini menyumbang 34 peratus kepada kemahiran berfikir pelajar secara langsung dan tidak langsung. Implikasi kajian ini kelak diharap dapat mengukuhkan teori dan amalan pengajaran dan pembelajaran untuk membantu meningkatkan kemahiran berfikir dalam kalangan pelajar.

This study aims to determine the direct and indirect influence of knowledge factors, application skills and imagination ability on the thinking skills of form six students in Tawau. This study involved 388 form six students in Tawau district who were randomly selected as the study sample. The instrument of this study was modified from the Holistic Intelligence Instrument (IKH) and the Student Emergence Instrument (IKP). The study data analysis was carried out using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) software. The study findings showed that there was a significant direct influence between knowledge application ability and imagination ability on students' thinking skills. While the knowledge factor showed an insignificant direct influence on students' thinking skills. However, the knowledge factor showed a significant indirect influence on thinking skills when combined with imagination ability. The study findings also showed that the knowledge and application skill variables contributed 55 percent to imagination ability. While these three independent variables contributed 34 percent to students' thinking skills directly and indirectly. The implications of this study are hoped to strengthen the theory and practice of teaching and learning to help improve thinking skills among students.
