Abstract
The objective of the research is to measure the effectiveness of a learning strategy, known as Inquiry Based Learning Strategy supported by Inquiry Cycle Orientation Model (PBI+OKI) among secondary school students. PBI+OKI is modified from various inquiry learning models which based on cognitive theories, particularly the ones that are related to critical thinking. The changes of the students' behaviour are assessed through several aspects like their understanding of the inquiry skills, critical thinking skills, achievement motivation, learning attitude and metacognitive awareness. This is a quasi experimental study. One hundred and twenty students were divided into three different groups, namely Pembelajaran Berasaskan lnkuiri dengan Model Orientasi Kitaran lnkuiri (PBI+OKI), Pembelajaran Berasaskan lnkuiri (PBI) and Pembelajaran Amalan Biasa (PAB). These students were randomly selected from three schools in the District of Kinta, Perak Darul Ridzuan. One way ' analysis of variance ANOVA was used to measure the main effect toward the dependent variables for the three treatment groups. The data obtained were first cleaned using Rasch Model followed by the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). In order to evaluate the relationships between inquiry understanding with critical thinking, achievement motivation and learning attitude, regression analysis was applied. Lastly, the data obtained from the interview sessions was further explained qualitatively. The result showed that all the null hypotheses were rejected. There were significant differences on all the dependent variables toward the independent variables. The result also showed that critical thinking, achievement motivation and learning attitude are strongly related to inquiry understanding skills after PBI+OKI model was exposed to the students. Likewise, after the model was practiced, it was found that the metacognitive awareness of the students has increased.
