This research aims to get an overview of (1) the mathematical critical thinking abilities of students who do not apply the RADEC learning model, (2) the mathematical critical thinking abilities of students who apply the RADEC learning model, (3) the influence of the RADEC learning model on participants' mathematical critical thinking abilities educate. This research approach is a quantitative approach with a type of experimental research. The population in this study was all students in class VIII of SMP Negeri 24 Bulukumba. The sample was all students in class VIII B and class VIII C, with 22 students each taken using the Simple Random Sampling technique. The instrument used in this research is a test instrument in the form of essay questions.
