Abstract


This study aims to determine the effect of inquiry-based teaching model on students' critical thinking skills in language learning.  The criteria for inclusion in research are that research must be experimental methods or quasi-experiments, research comes from journals or proceedings indexed by SINTA, research data is accessed through google scholar, ScienceDirect, Wiley and ERIC Journal, research must be relevant, research published in 2022-2024, learning subjects Indonesian and English, and have complete data to calculate effect size values. Data analysis with the help of JASP 0.8.5 application. The results concluded that the effect size data were heterogeneously distributed and normally distributed and the inquiry-based teaching model had a moderate effect on students' critical thinking skills in language learning with scores (p < 0.005; rRE = 0.74). These findings have a positive impact on educators to implement this learning model to improve students' critical thinking skills in Indonesian and English learning.
