The article can be written based on the literature reviewed from various sources. Articles are written to know how to implement an inquiry learning model to increase students' critical thinking skills. In this discussion, the method used to support the level of critical thinking is the guided inquiry learning method. The goal of critical thinking itself is related to finding intelligent solutions. Of the analysis found that implementing inquiry learning has the potential and can influence the improvement of students' critical thinking skills. Learning carried out in accordance with the learning structure positively impacts changes in the behavior of students who are more likely to be active. A guided approach to students is expected to provide an increase students' thinking skills. So, the guided inquiry is an alternative way for educators or teachers to improve students' critical thinking. This article is very helpful for readers in terms of knowing problems from the world of education today, especially in the topic of critical thinking in physics. This research can be used as learning material for future researchers regarding improving critical thinking through good physics learning, so that the papers produced can be maximal and useful for the coming year. © 2026 Author(s).
