Abstract

This study aimed to describe students' critical thinking skills on static fluids. The descriptive quantitative research involved 71 eleventh-grade science students from SMA Negeri 1 Boyolangu, Tulungagung. The instrument used was a nine-item essay test with a Cronbach's Alpha reliability of 0.625 (moderate). Results showed that students' average critical thinking skills were in the low category. The highest performance was in the Archimedes' principal subtopic (moderate), while the lowest was in viscosity (very low). Among the indicators, argument analysis had the highest achievement (low), and likelihood and uncertainty analysis had the lowest (very low). These findings indicate the need to implement the SSCS (Search, Solve, Create, Share) learning model integrated with STEAM approaches to improve students' critical thinking skills. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
