Thinking Based Learning (TBL)

Thinking Based Learning (TBL) yaitu suatu metode pembelajaran dimana skillful thinking atau kemampuan berpikir yang dipadukan dengan isi pembelajaran.

Berbeda dengan Problem Based Learning (PBL) dimana ada peluang murid meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir. Tapi guru tidak menyatakan secara explicit kepada murida kan membina keterampilan berpikir. Sebab ada bermacam-macam keterampilan dalam PBL, seperti membuat keputusan, komunikasi, analisis, mensintesis, dll.

Sedangkan TBL ada satu specific/focus thinking yang ingin perlihatkan dan secara langsung guru ketika merancang RPP atau lesson plan dia sudah memikirkan, 'RPP untuk hari ini keterampilan apa yang sebaiknya saya tanamkan pada murid? Sehingga, secara tidak langsung dan pada masa yang sama guru tersebut akan ajarkan konten. 

Basically, untuk meningkatkan/membangunkan keterampilan berpikir ada tiga pendekatan, iaitu:

1. Direct approach, mengajar secara spesifik tidak menghiraukan konten. yang diajarkan hanyalah berpikir saja. 
2. Indirect approach, pendekatan dimana kita menggunakan metode dimana memang murid terpaksa harus banyak berpikir. Contohnya kita gunakan PBL atau inquiry method.
3. Infused approach, menggunakan pendekatan perpaduan dalam isi pembelajaran.

TBL dapat pula meningkatkan keterampilan berfikir secara efisien.

Ada 3 komponen dalam TBL, yaitu thinking skills, habits of mind, metacognitive (berfikir tentang pemikiran).

Dalam silabus kita mengkatagorikan keterampilan berpikir ke dalam beberapa komponen yaitu keterampilan berpikir keratif (creative thinking) dan keterampilan berpikir kritis (critical Thinking).

Lalu kita dalam merancang lesson plan juga meletakkan (di bawah keterampilan berpikir kritis) beberapa perkara penting lainnya contohnya membanding perbedaan, menghubung satu dengan lainnya, atau menganalisis ---> mengacu pada Taksonomi Bloom.

PBL Problem and PBL Problem Scenario

Our have a lecturer a facilitator (her doing PBL method for our) for teaching us to study and implementation the PBL. How to designing PBL problem and crafting the PBL problem scenario. Yeah, she the amazing lecturer.

We were directed to form a group. Lecturer gave us referrals. Some direction is to express learning issues in PBL problem. We mention some learning issues, such as what the PBL problem and PBL problem scenario. Then it is also what the characteristics of PBL problem scenario, the steps preparing PBL problem scenario along with learning outcomes.

Furthermore, we were guided to share to answer questions on the learning issue. In this post, I will write based on what I understand.

PBL problem is something that is difficult and uncertainty but requires resolution (a solution from a different perspective). He was known as trigger, a case or task. Sometimes he would be in the form of a dilemma, something challenging. Clearly, he needs completion and sometimes have diverse solutions.

Well, following this image is a learning issue that I get it from note my lecturer.

The problems presented to the learners are using the problem scenario and situate the problem scenario must engage the learners in that context. Embeds content of the subject is creativity a teacher make learners excited. The problem scenario could be a newspaper story or something provocative/interesting. You also can add picture or video to support the problem.
