Many new learning models in the 21st century have emerged in improving students' academic skills, one of which is research-based learning (RBL). This pedagogic and constructivist model connects research and learning in improving students' critical thinking skills (CTS). The results of the study show that studies in empowering students' CTS using RBL are still limited. Therefore, exploration and deeper measurement of CTS with the RBL model were carried out through this study. The purpose of this study was to improve students' CTS using the RBL learning model. The results of the ANCOVA test showed that there was an effect of the RBL model in improving students' CTS. Descriptive data also shows that the average value of CTS is 72.70 using RBL, while students who take part in learning using conventional models show an average value of critical thinking skills of 58.30. Thus, RBL can be recommended in increasing the CTS of elementary school students in science learning.

Students' critical thinking ability is one of the components developed in 21st Century learning. However, this critical thinking ability is still very minimal and far from expectations, this is supported by the results of international surveys that show a low average value. Likewise, the results of the pretest of critical thinking skills of grade IV elementary school students in Cluster 2 Purwasari showed a low average value. This study aims to determine the improvement of students' critical thinking skills in reading comprehension learning through the use of the FIVES Model and the Guided Reading Model. The study used a quasi-experiment with Static Group Pretest-Postest Design. The results showed that the use of these two models could improve students' critical thinking skills. However, the use of Model FIVES experienced a significant increase compared to the Guided Reading Model. Thus, there is an increase in students' critical thinking skills through the FIVES Model compared to the Guided Reading Model.

Elementary students' critical thinking skills are one of the components developed in 21st Century learning. However, these critical thinking skills are still very shallow and far from expectations. It was proven by the results of international surveys that show low average scores. Likewise, the results of the pretest critical thinking skills of fifth-grade students in 2 elementary schools in Sukabumi Regency showed a low average value. This study aims to determine the increase in students' critical thinking skills in learning to read comprehension through the use of the FIVES Model and Guided Reading Model in the Industrial Revolution Era 4.0. The research method uses quasi-experimental with Static Group Pretest-Postest Design. The subject of the research was fifth-grade elementary school students. SDN 4 Cicurug implements the FIVES Model, and SDN 2 Purwasari implements the Guided Reading Model. The results showed that the use of these two models could improve the critical thinking skills of elementary students. However, the increase in students' critical thinking skills through the FIVES Model compared to the Guided Reading Model in reading comprehension in the Industrial Revolution Era 4.0.

The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in effectiveness of PBL learning models with TPS in terms of the critical thinking skills of elementary school students in mathematics. This research is a quasi-experimental study. In this study, the Non-equivalent Control Group Design design is used to investigate the effects of the two variables used. In this study 19 students at Bacem Elementary School and 19 students at Waru Elementary School, Jepon District, Blora Regency. The two groups were given different treatments, namely the PBL learning model was treated in the experimental group at Bacem SDN, and the TPS model was treated in the control group at Waru Elementary School. Based on the results of the study, H_oditotak and H_a were accepted. The analysis in this study used the Ngain test to determine the increase in the average value of the results of the pretest and posttest. This is based on the results of the NGain analysis showing an increase in value after being given PBL treatment of 0.64, while the increase in value after being given TPS treatment was 0.53. Based on all analysis results, it can be concluded that there are significant differences in effectiveness in this study. Evidently the application of PBL learning models has a higher level of effectiveness when compared to the TPS learning model of the critical thinking skills of fifth grade students in mathematics

This study aims to determine the potential of learning models with the Pattern of Empowerment Thinking Through Questions (PBMP) combined with integrated scientific approach integrated Islamic values in empowering critical thinking and metacognition of elementary school students or madrasah ibtidaiyah. Furthermore, this study aimed to determine differences in critical thinking and metacognition of students with different ethnicities related to the learning model applied. This research is classified as a quasi experiment, conducted in the 2018/2019 school year in class V at two Ibtidaiyah Madrasahs classified as schools or multiethnic Madrasas in Ternate City. The measured variables in this study were students' critical thinking skills and metacognition. To test the hypotheses, Anakova in the SPSS 16.0 program was used. If the probability value is significant, then further tests with LSD. The results of data analysis show that PBMP learning combined with integrated scientific approach integrated Islamic values has an effect on students 'critical thinking and metacognition and or it can be said that PBMP patterned learning combined with an integrated scientific approach integrated Islamic values is more empowering students' critical thinking and metacognition than conventional models. There are differences in students' critical thinking between ethnic groups in the class applied to the model, these differences can be concluded that students in each ethnic group have different learning styles. Keywords: multiethnic, PBMP, scientific approach, Islamic values, Metacognition, critical thinking.

This research refers to the lack of students' critical thinking skills in science subjects. This is caused by passive teacher learning because it still dominates learning activities and the lack of students paying attention to the environment in socio-culture. Peethnoscience learning teaches science which is contained in local wisdom in society, in this case, learning about local culture can improve students' critical thinking skills. It will need ethnoscience directly could observing learning about the culture as a learning environment in the learning process in elementary schools, so that students can identify scientific problems and explain phenomena scientifically. This research aims to analyze about important role of ethnoscience-based Natural Science learning to develop the thinking skills of elementary school students. Type the research method used was the literature review method (literature review). Data collection techniques in this study are from various sources, namely articles and scientific journals that come from google scholar and Scopus. The conclusion of this study ethnoscience-based learning encourages students to think critically through mental activity, it's using ethnoscience-based science learning that can support students to develop abilities in response to information received by considering all aspects related to that information. Abstrak Penelitian ini merujuk pada kurangnya kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa pada mata pelajaran IPA. Hal tersebut disebabkan oleh pembelajaran guru yang pasif karena masih mendominasi kegitan pembelajaran dan kurangnya siswa dalam memperhatikan lingkungan pada sosial budaya. Pembelajaran etnosains mengajarkan Ilmu Pengetahuan yang didalamnya terkandung pada kearifan lokal di masyarakat,dalam hal ini pembelajaran tentang budaya lokal dapat meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa. Maka diperlukannya etnosains yang secara langsung dapat mengamati pembelajaran tentang budaya sebagai lingkungan belajar dalam proses pembelajaran di sekolah dasar, agar siswa dapat mengidentifikasi masalah keilmuan dan menjelaskan fenomena secara ilmiah. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis tentang pentingnya peranan pembelajaran Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam berbasis etnosains untuk mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir siswa sekolah dasar. Jenis metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode tinjauan pustaka (literature review). Teknik pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini adalah berbagai sumber yaitu artikel dan jurnal ilmiah yang berasal dari google scholar dan scopus. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pembelajaran berbasis etnosains mendorong siswa untuk berpikir kritis melalui aktivitas mental, oleh karena itu penggunaan pembelajaran IPA berbasis etnosains dapat mendukung siswa untuk mengembangkan kemampuannya dalam menanggapi informasi yang diterima dengan mempertimbangkan semua aspek yang berkaitan dengan informasi tersebut.
