This study aims to train students' critical thinking skills during the learning process using CCM-CCA assisted by virtual experiments. The material used for research in optics. This type of research uses a quantitative approach. The subjects in the research were 30 physics education students at a university in NTB. The ability to think critically during the learning process is trained with student worksheets equipped with instruments for critical thinking. Learning is carried out for 3 meetings. The results showed that there was an increase in students 'critical thinking skills from the low category with an average score of 38 to the high category with an average score of 75. This fact shows that CCM-CCA learning assisted with virtual experiments can train and even improve students' critical thinking skills in Optical material.

<p style="text-align:justify">Critical thinking skills are one of the thinking skills needed to live in the 21st century and the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. This study aims to develop a Virtual Classroom Critical Thinking (VC2T) Model, which is valid, practical, and effective to improve students' critical thinking skills. VC2T model has six steps: problem orientation, formulation, group discussion, analysis, result discussion, and reflection. This study is a Research & Development (R & D) involving 33 high school students in Surabaya, Indonesia. Before being tested, the VC2T Model was designed based on the theory of Plomp and Nieveen and then validated by 3 (three) experts in physics education. Data were analyzed using validity by experts, implementation of teaching with the VC2T Model, paired t-test, calculation of n-gain, effect size and percentage of student responses. The results showed that the VC2T Model is: (1) valid with an average validity score of 4.14 in the high validity category; (2) practical with an average score of implementations teaching of VC2T Model 4.26 in the outstanding category; and (3) effective as indicated by increasing of students' critical thinking skills scores which are statistically significant at alpha .05, the average n-gain is .38 in the medium category, the effect size of 6.93 is in a strong category and the average students' response is 87.59 % with outstanding category.</p>

[Title: Implementation of Physics Learning Tools Based on Inquiry Learning with Conflict Cognitive Strategies to Facilitate Critical Thinking Ability]. This study aims to implement physics learning device based on inquiry with conflict cognitive strategy to facilitate student’s critical thinking on the fluid material. The device is implemented in the first semester students of Physics Education Study Program IKIP Mataram academic year 2017/2018 with test design using one group pre-test post-test design. Data collection methods used were questionnaires, tests, and observations, while data analysis techniques used qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis. The results of the implementation obtained some findings, namely: learning activities can be done well with the high degree of reliability. Student response to learning is very positive with the interest of students to follow the learning. The students' critical thinking skills after the experimentally developed learning tools are critically developed. Based on the results of this study can be concluded that learning tools that are implemented practical, and effectively used to facilitate students' critical thinking skills.

<p class="Abstract">The aim of this research is to improve critical thinking skills and cognitive learning outcomes of Physics Education students after learning fundamental biology based on CTL Experimental method. Essay and scoring rubric of critical thinking skills were used to find out what happened to students in term of critical thinking skill of doing essay. The data of students' critical thinking skills were calculated to obtain the data of critical thinking skills of the whole class. There was an improvement of students' critical thinking skills from the initial condition to the First Meeting by 6.8% and from the First Meeting to the Second Meeting by 8.12%. Students cognitive learning outcomes of Meeting II obtained an average value of 76.82. Improvement of students’ cognitive learning outcomes from the initial conditions to the First Meeting was 10.54 and from Meeting I to Meeting II was 3.2. The objectives or target of classical learning is achieved. The results shows that CTL experimental method can improve critical thinking skills and cognitive learning outcomes of Physics Education students.</p>

Abstract The 21st century demands critical thinking skills, problem solving, and communication skills, so physics education students must be prepared to have these skills in the current industrial 4.0 era. These skills can be trained and developed through Higher Order Thinking Laboratory (HOT-LAB) activities. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of the HOT-LAB laboratory type on the improvement of critical thinking skills on the concept of magnetic fields. This research uses One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The instrument uses questions of practical understanding and understanding of 10 questions. The results of data analysis showed that the average N-Gain score for the experimental class was 45.3 and the control class was 35.7. The use of HOTLAB in a real blended virtual laboratory has moderate effectiveness to improve Critical Thinking Skills on the subject of magnetic field.

This study aims to determine the critical thinking skills and enthusiasm of prospective physics educator students in learning virtual-based thermodynamics courses. This type of research is a survey research that begins with the development of research instruments using a 4-D development model according to Thiagarajan consisting of 4 stages, namely: define, design, develop, and disseminate. The research subjects were 20 students of the physics education study program at the University of Palangka Raya in the Thermodynamics class. Collecting data using validation methods, evaluation techniques and student enthusiasmquestionnaires. Quantitative data were obtained from the results of critical thinking skills assessment and student enthusiasm questionnaires in the virtual-based thermodynamics learning process given at the end of the lesson. The data analysis technique used quantitative and qualitative descriptive inferential statistical test analysis. The results obtained are the test instrument for critical thinking skills learning outcomes and student enthusiasm questionnaire instruments in virtual-based thermodynamic learning that have been developed are included in the valid criteria, with Cronbach's Alpha reliability () 0.712 < 0.899 which is included in the high reliability criteria; 1) students' critical thinking skills are 87% with an average N-gain of 0.86 critical thinking skills which is in the high criteria; 2) student enthusiasm on average 91.7% students feel enthusiastic about thermodynamics learning that is carried out virtually, which can be seen from the aspect of student's intention to take part in learning by 95%, aspect of goal 90%, aspect of self-potential by 90% and positive thinking aspect by 91.7%.

The demand for implementing industrial revolution education 4.0 is the use of information technology in the learning process. Virtual Reality (VR) media in learning is one of the uses of technology in its implementation. Utilization of VR media must also be accompanied by including the role of local wisdom by using musical instruments sampe. It is hoped that through learning using VR media based on local wisdom it can improve students' critical thinking skills. This study aims to improve critical thinking skills and instill the value of local wisdom in students. The method used in this research is an experimental method with the form of pre-experimental research design and one-group pretest-posttest design research design. Samples were selected using probability sampling techniques. The research sample was the second semester students of the Physics Education Study Program of IKIP PGRI Pontianak. The instrument used was a critical thinking skills test and a questionnaire. This study obtained qualitative and quantitative data, where quantitative data were analyzed using statistical analysis t test to see the increase in students' critical thinking skills. Based on the analysis of the results of the critical thinking test, it was concluded that there was an increase in students' critical thinking skills using VR media based on local wisdom, this is because VR media provides students with direct experience in seeing the concept of vibrations and sound waves through 3D animated visualization of musical instruments until.
