Abstract

This study aims to analyze student's critical thinking skills and creative thinking skills on the topic of static fluid physics using guided inquiry learning assisted by computer simulations. This type of research is a quasi experiment with the design of three groups pretest-posttest. The sampling technique uses cluster random sampling. Analysis of research data using multivariate analysis of variance (Manova). The results showed that student's critical thinking skills and creative thinking skills on the topic of static fluid physics using guided inquiry learning assisted by computer simulations were better than using guided inquiry learning without assisted by computer simulation or conventional learning. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
