Industry 4.0 Revolution is an era in human life that is developing at this time, where in this era human life is oriented to technology. Mastery of technology today is a challenge for humans to make life easier. In this era also more human resources will be replaced by machines and technology. The industrial revolution 4.0 also influenced the education sector, for example in the development of teaching materials. Teaching material is one of the learning resources that can help students in the learning process so as to improve the competency of students. The teaching materials needed must lead to the development of technology that can facilitate students in learning. One example of teaching materials that are currently developing is the e-module. E-modules can help students understand physical concepts. It is hoped that with the help of physics guided E-module based on Guided Inquiry can improve the critical thinking skills of students in understanding physics. The ability to think critically is one of the characteristics of the 4.0 industrial revolution in education. The purpose of this study is to identify the critical thinking skills of high school students with the help of e-module based on Guided Inquiry. This type of research is quantitative descriptive with an instrument in the form of an observation questionnaire given to students and educators. Based on the results of observations given there are teaching materials that have not been oriented to the critical thinking skills of students. Therefore it is necessary to do an analysis in the development of physics guided e-module based on Guided Inquiry to improve the critical thinking skills of high school students. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.
