APPLICATION OF GUIDED INQUIRY AIDED BY 3D ANIMATION OF HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYSTEM MATERIAL TO IMPROVE CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS

This study aims to describe the improvement of students' critical thinking skills after applying the guided inquiry learning model assisted by 3D animation. The type of research used is pre-experimental with a one group pretest posttest design. The data collection methods used in this study were tests, observations, and questionnaires. Data were analyzed statistically using Wilcoxon test and descriptively using N-Gain. Wilcoxon test results showed significant differences, with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). Critical thinking skills test scores increased for all indicators, as shown by the N-Gain result of 0.8 (high category). This is supported by the results of the implementation of learning that was carried out in accordance with the syntax with a percentage of 100%. The learning process was responded very well with an average percentage of positive student responses reaching 96%, which fell into the excellent category. The conclusion of this research is that the guided inquiry learning model assisted by 3D animation is effective in improving students' critical thinking skills.
