Abstract

The purpose of this study was describing the effectiveness rate of learning material by ICT-based Guided Inquiry Model in training critical thinking skill and science literacy junior high school students. Before being tested, the developed learning material was assessed by an expert for the validity rate. Then, the learning material was tested on 30 seventh-grade students. This data was obtained by the critical thinking and science literacy test method. The result of this study showed that the average of the pretest was 39.9 points and the average of the posttest was 75.5 points by N-gain score was 0.7, categorized as a high score. That result could explain that the critical thinking skill of students was increased, from very less critical to critical. It can be concluded that learning material by ICT-based guided inquiry model was effective for training critical thinking skills and junior high school students’ science literacy.
