This type of research is Classroom Action Research (CAR) with Kemmis and Mc Taggart models with stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The instruments used in this study were validation sheets, observation sheets, and final cycle test sheets. The results showed that the application of problem posing learning with the following steps: the stage of apperception and motivation, the stage of conceptualization, the development and discussion stages, and the stage of correcting answers can improve the critical thinking skills of Class VII Middle School students in social arithmetic material. The average percentage of the test results of students' critical thinking skills in the first cycle was 55.2 percent and increased by 20.6 percent in the second cycle to 75.8 percent, so that this study could be said to be successful.

(3) What is the effect of critical thinking activities on students’ social skills? The method of this research is action research which is considered highly important for educational sciences. In the course of this research, activities for developing critical thinking skills were implemented to 4th grade students. 25 4th grade private elementary school students participated in the research. Researchers used 13-question “Critical Thinking Skill Open-ended Questionnaire” to collect data. The answers given to the open-ended questionnaire before and after the activities were analyzed using content analysis, and themes and codes were determined accordingly, thereby answers of the students are compared. It is noted that before implementation, most of the students did not have any idea about critical thinking or they thought critical thinking has a negative connotation; however, after implementation, they gained more positive and open-minded opinions about this term.
