Abstract
Test result of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (EOCD) (2015) showed that the result of critical thinking skills of Indonesian students are relatively low. The initial observation made by the researcher showed that students’ low critical thinking skills at school is because the existing learning tools have not been able to facilitate students to develop their thinking skills, therefore it is necessary to develop lesson plan instruments that can facilitate the critical thinking skills. This study aims to improve students' critical thinking skills through the development of lesson plan instrument on life organizations subject matter by using guided inquiry models. This research was carried out in two stages namely the development stage which aims to develop lesson plan instrument following the 4-D design model from Thiagarajan (1974) it is also followed by the field testing with nonequivalent control group design. The subject of this research are seventh grade students of two schools, MTsN 1 (develovment stage) and MTsN 3 (Field testing stage) in Tabalong Regency. The lesson plan instrument is developed in this study to fulfill the eligibility requirements which are valid, practical and effective. The result of critical thinking skill both as a whole or when it is viewed by each used indicator in this study, namely interpretation, inference, analysis, evaluation and explanation, for the experimental class showed a higher increase than the control class. It can be concluded that the life organization learning material using the developed guided inquiry model have met the eligibility criteria and is able to improve the critical thinking skills of MTs students.
