| Abstract | Critical thinking is an important skill of the 21st century. An intensive observation during the learning process at State Junior High School (SMP Negeri) 8 Semarang found that students had low critical thinking abilities in solar system topics. Thus, a guided inquiry model assisted by augmented reality media on the solar system study material is expected to engage students by allowing them to participate actively in their learning process to improve their critical thinking skills. This research used a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design by applying the guided inquiry model assisted by augmented reality (AR) to improve students' critical thinking skills. The subjects of this research were students in VII F and VII G classes (Academic Year 2024). The research instruments included a multiple-choice test sheet with reasoning and a student response questionnaire. Data analysis employed the N-gain test and t-test. The results of the N-gain analysis showed an increase in students' critical thinking skills in the experimental class by 0.62 and in the control class by 0.27. The t-test results showed a significant difference between the critical thinking abilities of the experimental and control classes with Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.05. The guided inquiry model implementation with AR in improving the students' critical thinking skills is also supported by the results of the student response questionnaire, which showed a very good category (84.99%). This research concludes that learning using the guided inquiry model assisted by augmented reality could improve student's critical thinking skills. |
