Abstract
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 skill. This research was conducted after a preliminary study through observations and interviews at State Junior High School (SMP Negeri) 8 Semarang. Students' low critical thinking abilities inspired the researcher to analyze how to apply the guided inquiry model assisted by augmented reality (AR) to improve students' critical thinking skills. This research used a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. 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 augmented reality in improving the students' critical thinking skills is also supported by the results of the student response questionnaire, which showed a very good response rate (84.99%). This research concludes that learning using the guided inquiry model assisted by augmented reality could improve student's critical thinking skills.
