Abstract

Writing is one of important skill that must be mastered by the students. It is used to convey information or express the ideas. The process of writing is more complex. Therefore, the students need to think critically to appear some ideas. The students need to be aware with their learning style to absorb knowledge related to the kind of text, especially for argumentative text. Through the learning style preferred by the students, they can learn easily and maximally. This research was conducted to examine the contribution of students’ critical thinking and learning style toward their achievement in writing ability. The researcher used quantitative research with path analysis model to find out the direct and indirect contributions among variables. There were three instruments utilized to collect the data. The first was critical thinking questionnaire that adapted from Peter Facione. The second was learning style questionnaire that adopted from Barsch learning style inventory. The last was a test to obtain the score of students’ writing ability. There were 100 students of eleventh grade of MA Darussalam Nganjuk as the participants. From this research, the researcher found that there was weak significant direct contribution of students’ learning style toward their critical thinking (estimate= .333; p (.000) <.05). Next, there was significant direct contribution of students’ learning style and critical thinking critical toward their writing ability (Writing test < --- learning style, p (.000) < .05, estimate .252; Writing test < --- critical thinking, p (.000) < .05, estimate= .2.634). The last, the indirect contribution of students’ learning style through their critical thinking toward their writing ability was found significant with an estimate value of .663. As a result, it can be concluded that the students should be aware with their learning style as comfortable as they applied so that, they can increase their critical thinking. Because both of them have influence for their academic achievement, especially for their writing ability in argumentative text. Theoretically, learning style becomes one way of absorbing information The teacher's instruction is one way that pupils gain knowledge and comprehend learning materials. Different students have different methods for retaining the knowledge that 6 has been presented because each students interprets the information they are given in a unique way. There are those who move quickly, moderately, and slowly. Consequently, they must acquire styles that go with one's ability-related trait. Consequently, some of the content taught is simpler to comprehend. The students individuals have unique learning styles that are influenced by the setting and the material, age, prior knowledge, gender, drive, and ethnicity are all factors. On the other hand, critical thinking is sensible and geared toward choosing what to believe or do. This encapsulates how the phrase is utilized at its heart in the critical thinking movement. One is aided by the use of a set of critical thinking dispositions and skills while deciding what to believe or do. Critical thinking is considered to be the most effective writing skill in argumentative writing, and it has been determined that having this ability in higher education is essential and important for comprehending the learning process.
