Questioning means thinking, and thinking is manifested in the form of questions. Research that studies the relationship between questioning and students' critical thinking skills is little, if any. The aim of this study is to examine how student's questions skill correlates to student's critical thinking skills in learning of chemistry. The research design used was one group pretest-posttest design. The participants involved were 94 students, all of whom attended their last semesters, Chemistry Education of Tadulako University. A pre-test was administered to check participants' ability to ask critical questions and critical thinking skills in learning chemistry. Then, the students were taught by using questioning technique. After accomplishing the lesson, a post-test was given to evaluate their progress. Obtained data were analyzed by using Pair-Samples T.Test and correlation methods. The result shows that the level of the questions plays an important role in critical thinking skills is the question levels of predictive, analysis, evaluation and inference. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
