Data collection uses critical thinking skills tests in the form of essays, science attitude questionnaires, and student response questionnaires. The data collected were analyzed descriptively and inferentially. The results showed that students who used interactive teaching materials had a higher average N-gain than the control class. The results of the t-test show that there are significant differences in critical thinking skills.
