Access to Information
AI tools provide new ways for students to access and generate information. However, access alone does not guarantee meaningful understanding.
About the Project
Understanding how we think in the age of AI.
Belajar Bernalar is a research and development project focused on developing a digital instrument to assess Critical Thinking Skills in AI-based learning.
Research Project · 2026
The Project
Learning is not only about finding answers.
The development of artificial intelligence is transforming how students access information, engage with learning materials, and approach academic tasks.
In this changing learning environment, the ability to think critically remains essential. Students need to go beyond obtaining information and develop the capacity to examine ideas, evaluate information, and construct reasoned judgments.
Belajar Bernalar is a research and development initiative that aims to contribute to the assessment of these skills through the development of a web-based digital Critical Thinking Skills instrument.
Research Background
Why does critical thinking matter?
The increasing presence of artificial intelligence in education raises important questions about how students process, evaluate, and use information.
Evaluating Information
Students need to examine the quality of information, consider supporting evidence, and evaluate the relevance of ideas.
Reasoned Judgment
Meaningful learning involves developing judgments based on careful consideration rather than accepting information without examination.
Assessment of Thinking
Appropriate assessment is needed to understand students' critical thinking skills in the context of contemporary digital learning.
Our Objectives
Developing an instrument for meaningful assessment.
This project aims to develop a web-based digital instrument for assessing university students' Critical Thinking Skills in AI-based learning.
An instrument that is valid, reliable, and applicable.
The development process involves constructing the assessment framework, designing relevant assessment items, validating the instrument, and examining its psychometric properties.
Expected Outcomes
Contributing to the assessment of critical thinking.
The project is expected to produce an assessment instrument that can support research and the understanding of critical thinking skills in contemporary learning environments.
