Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan kesadaran metakognitif antara siswa laki-laki dan perempuan di SMA Negeri 1 Gunungsari. Kesadaran metakognitif, yang mencakup kemampuan untuk memantau, mengontrol, dan mengevaluasi proses berpikir, merupakan faktor penting dalam keberhasilan akademik. Penelitian deskriptif ini melibatkan 100 siswa kelas XI IPA, dengan 52 siswa laki-laki dan 48 siswa perempuan yang dipilih secara acak. Data dikumpulkan melalui angket metakognitif berbasis skala Likert dengan empat pilihan jawaban. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa perempuan memiliki kesadaran metakognitif yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan siswa laki-laki pada hampir semua indikator yang diukur. Rata-rata nilai kesadaran metakognitif siswa perempuan adalah 2,65 (SD = 0,57), sementara rata-rata nilai siswa laki-laki adalah 2,58 (SD = 0,55). Perbedaan paling signifikan terlihat pada indikator perencanaan, dengan nilai rata-rata siswa perempuan sebesar 2,76 (SD = 0,58) dibandingkan dengan 2,61 (SD = 0,60) pada siswa laki-laki. Berdasarkan hasil ini, direkomendasikan agar strategi pembelajaran yang lebih responsif terhadap gender diterapkan, termasuk pendekatan yang lebih personal dan integrasi teknologi untuk mendukung pengembangan kesadaran metakognitif. Penelitian lanjutan diperlukan untuk mengeksplorasi lebih lanjut pengaruh faktor lain, seperti lingkungan belajar dan dukungan sosial, terhadap kesadaran metakognitif.

Gender Differences in Metacognitive Awareness at SMA Negeri 1 Gunungsari

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the differences in metacognitive awareness between male and female students at SMA Negeri 1 Gunungsari. Metacognitive awareness, encompassing the ability to monitor, control, and evaluate cognitive processes, is a critical factor in academic success. This descriptive study involved 100 randomly selected 11th-grade science students, consisting of 52 male and 48 female students. Data were collected using a Likert-scale-based metacognitive questionnaire with four response options. The results indicated that female students had higher metacognitive awareness than male students across most measured indicators. The average metacognitive awareness score for female students was 2.65 (SD = 0.57), compared to 2.58 (SD = 0.55) for male students. The most significant difference was observed in the planning indicator, with female students scoring an average of 2.76 (SD = 0.58) compared to 2.61 (SD = 0.60) for male students. Based on these findings, it is recommended that more gender-responsive learning strategies be implemented, including personalized approaches and the integration of technology to support the development of metacognitive awareness. Further research is needed to explore the influence of other factors, such as learning environments and social support, on metacognitive awareness.
