Abstract

This study compares students' critical thinking skills through interactive media based on learning phenomena. The phenomenon of learningbased interactive media used are interactive web modules and interactive videos on the topic of the colloid system. Comparative research with a quantitative approach is the method used. In this study's sample, all chemistry education students at the University of Riau and the State Islamic University of Sultan Syarif Kasim Riau in the academic year 2020–2021. Saturated sampling is the method that is used. There were a total of 68 students used as samples. Each group had 34 students. The control group used interactive video-based learning phenomena, and the experimental group used interactive web modules based on phenomena learning. The essay test instrument is used to measure students' critical thinking skills. We used paired t-tests and N-gain to analyze the data. The results showed that interactive web modules were better than interactive videos at helping students improve their critical thinking skills. So, teachers can think of appropriate instructional media used in distance learning as a way to help students improve their critical thinking. © 2023,International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies.
