The purpose of this study is to look at the effect of critical thinking and creative thinking on family welfare through intervening variables of quality of life in women workers in Surabaya. The concept of a research framework is built on understanding existing theories about critical thinking, creative thinking and reconstruction of family welfare through the quality of family life. This study consisted of 305 samples of female workers in Surabaya who had school-age children. Data obtained from questionnaires distributed to respondents. Using Structural Equation Modeling statistical modeling techniques, with Stata 14 Software. Critical thinking and creative thinking are needed for women workers to be able to do time, mind and energy management for office work and household chores so that a better quality of life will ultimately lead to family welfare. From this study the results were obtained the first model Y = 0.51 X1 + 0.47 X2, which means that exogenous variables consisting of critical thinking (X1) and creative thinking have a positive and significant effect on intervening endogenous variables, namely quality of life (Y) The Second Model Z = 0.93 Y which means the quality of life variable (Y) has a positive and significant effect on the dependent variable namely family welfare (Z). All latent variable indicators have a positive and significant effect with z values> 1.96. This research illustrates the importance of critical thinking and creative thinking for women workers in fighting for the quality of family life in order to achieve a prosperous family. This cannot be formed quickly, it takes time to continue to enrich themselves with new knowledge and insights.

This chapter explores the question: Does online discussion increase critical thinking and interaction? It presents a selective review of the literature concerned with critical thinking and/or interaction during online discussion. It reports a program of 5 studies of the effects of instructional media and instructional methods on critical thinking and interaction. Study 1 tests the influence on critical thinking of online vs. face-to-face discussion, individual vs. group consensus in summarizing discussion, and discussion of examples of concepts vs. discussion of more abstract analysis. Study 2 examines the relationship between the level of critical thinking in discussion and the quality of papers later written by discussants. Study 3 explores the question: Can a teaching assistant (TA) help to facilitate student-to-student interaction and critical thinking? Study 4 asks: Does personal relevance of discussion topic influence student participation and level of critical thinking in discussion online? Study 5 asks: Does the use of rubrics influence the level of student interaction and/or the level of critical thinking in online discussion? The evidence suggests that it is easier to influence students to interact than to think critically. The chapter offers some suggestions on how to increase student-to-student interaction and critical thinking.
