<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to describe the effectiveness of a scientific approach in increasing original thinking ability on buffered solutions topic. This research population was all of students in the 11th grade of MIA at SMA Negeri 1 Bangunrejo for 2014/2015 academic year. This study used quasi experiment method with non equivalent control group design. The 11th grade of MIA2 and MIA3 were used as the sample classes of this research which were obtained by using purposive sampling technique. The result of this research showed that the average n-Gain of original thinking ability in the control class was 0.603 and in the experimental was class was 0.763. Based on t test the average of n-Gain both the research classes were different significantly. It could be concluded that learning by using scientific approach was effective in increasing original thinking ability on buffered solutions topic.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan efektivitas pendekatan ilmiah dalam meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir orisinil siswa pada materi larutan penyangga.
