Abstract

Critical thinking skills are one of the skills that students must have in studying Biology. Students must adapt to technological developments. The development of critical thinking skills in lessons related to practical activities can be done by using teaching materials. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of using PBL-based Electronic LKPD for practical work to improve critical thinking skills of grade X SMA students on bacteria material. This type of research is R&D research and development. The development model used refers to Thiagarajan (Define, Design, Develop, and Dessiminate) and this study discusses the Dessiminate stages. The sample in this study was class X using only 2 experimental classes without a control class. The data collection technique usedpretest and posttest in the form of essay questions. The results of the study show that the use of PBL-based electronic LKPD for practical work is more effective in improving thinking skills.critical learners
