Abstract
The empowerment of students’ potential should be made in relation with cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. This empowerment will give a good effect on students, particularly related to the demands of the 21st century. The examples of the empowerment in the cognitive aspect are the empowerment of students’ metacognitive skills and cognitive learning results. On the other hand, in relation with the affective domain, it can be done by empowering the student's character. The purpose of this research is to reveal the correlation between metacognitive skills and cognitive learning results with the student character. The method used in this research is a correlational research. The population of this research is class X students of senior high schools in Malang, Indonesia. The samples of this research are 165 students, divided into five learning strategies. The data are analyzed by using multiple linear regressions. The results of the analysis show that in the five learning strategies, it is proved that metacognitive skills and cognitive learning results have a correlation with the students’ characters. The effective contribution of metacognitive skills and cognitive learning results in each learning strategy is less than 50%. Therefore, further investigations to reveal the reason of the relatively low contribution of metacognitive skills and cognitive learning results on students' character need to be carried out. Keywords: Cognitive learning results, character, metacognitive skills, biology students.
