Critical thinking ability is an essential ability that students need to compete in the 21 century. It is an ability to think carefully using reason and logic and being able to consider all the consequences of decisions taken to solve a problem. By having an ability to think critically, students are able to analyze and find solutions to any problems given by the teacher or problems they face in the real world. Students' critical thinking ability in Indonesia is still categorized as poor. Hence, teachers must find out the appropriate learning methods and models to train and improve students' critical thinking ability. This paper aims at identify the effectiveness of discovery-based learning model in improving students’ critical thinking ability. By then, teachers are expected to have an overview of how effective discovery-based learning is in improving students’ critical thinking ability.

Critical thinking is one of the high-level thinking stages that can be interpreted as a process of thinkingprecisely, directed, reasoned, and reflective in decision-making that can be trusted. This study was aimed todetermine the improvement of critical thinking skills toward Guided Discovery Learning model of grade VIIIstudents at MTs Al-Huda Pekanbaru on light material. The type of research used was experimental research.Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the data. This analysis gave the description about influence ofGuided Discovery Learning model toward student's critical thinking ability. The subjects of this study were58 students. The data was collected based on critical thinking skill's test result which consisted of 15 essayquestions for 5 indicators after Guided Discovery Learning model was applied on experiment class andconventional model on control class. Mean score of sudents' critical thinking ability on experiment class was78.45 which was in a high category and average score of students' critical thinking skill on control class was70.52 which was in low category. Based on the result of students' critical thinking skill, it can be concludedthat there was an improvement of critical thinking ability after guided discovery learning model was appliedby 11.24% compared to conventional learning model.

The background of this research is, there is no learning model that can optimally support critical thinking skills, so it takes an innovative learning model. In this case, the researchers used web helped to guide discovery learning model to improve the critical thinking skills of the student in class X SMAN 4 Praya in academic year 2019/2020. This study aimed to find an effect of web assisted guided discovery learning on trigonometry material to critical thinking ability of the student in class X SMAN 4 Praya in academic year 2019/2020. This study use a quantitative research approach to the type of experimental research. In this experiment the researchers used a quasi-experimental, and uses two classes as a research, the experimental class and control class. The population of this research is all the student in class X SMAN 4 Praya and and choose two class as a sample class that is X MIPA 5 as a experimental class and X MIPA 3 as control class. Student in experimental class used web assisted guided discovery learning model and in control class used guided discovery without web assisted. The result of the research showed that the average of critical thinking ability in the experimental class is better than control class which is in the experimental class is in the less effective category and control class in ineffective category.

This research is aimed to know: (1) Whether the increasing student’s critical thinking ability through guided discovery learning methods assisted by geogebra higher than the students who were given guided discovery methods without geogebra, (2) How the interaction between learning and early math  ability of student mathematical learning result. This study was a quasi-experimental study. The population of this study was the entire class of six semester mathematics education which approximately 184 people. Randomly, two classes were selected from six classes.  The first experimental class was given a geogebra assisted discovery method and the second experimental class was given a guided discovery method without  geogebra . The instrument used was a description test. The data analysis has been done by analysis of two-way variance (ANOVA). The results showed (1) the increasing student’s critical thinking ability through guided discovery learning methods assisted by geogebra were better than the students who were given guided discovery learning methods without geogebra. (2) There was no Interaction between learning and early math ability of student mathematical learning results.

Mathematical Critical thinking is one of  mathematical abilities that must be obtained by students. Critical thinking is one of the high order thinking processes that can make concepts in student knowledge.  Students with critical thinking in mathematics learning mostly do rational activities such as interpreting information based on a particular theoretical framework, linking theory with practice, making claims and justifying it, utilizing data in support of argumentation, making relations or relationships between various ideas, asking questions, evaluating knowledge, predict, describe something, analyze, synthesize, and categorize. This study aims to analyze the effect of the Concept-Based Learning Model on the critical thingking mathematical abilities.The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of Concept-Based Learning Model toward mathematics critical thinking ability. The method used in this research is quasi experiment by Randomize Control Group Post Test Only Design with cluster random sampling technique. Indicators of mathematics critical thinking skills measured in this study include providing simple explanations, building basic skills, concluding, making more explanations, and deciding an action. The results showed that the mathematics critical thinking ability of students in the experimental class for the five indicators that being analyze was higher than the ability of students in the control class. A fairly high difference in the indicator showed in give a simple explanation and concluding. and it means that the application of Concept-Based Learning Model significantly influences the  abilities  of students' mathematics critical thinking.
