Abstract

The integration of Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) in the module can link the growing scientific issues in society. The SSI in the module can be explored by students for improving their critical thinking skills. The purpose of this study is describing the content validity of SSI-based science module for students’ critical thinking skills. The type of this study is a research and development. The result of this study is a content validity of SSI-based module for students’ critical thinking skills. The sample of the study are the students of class VII junior high school 2 of Puger and junior high school 1 of Puger. The issues of environmental pollution are the main issues that used by the module. The instrument consists of a logical validation questionnaire in the form of a questionnaire for expert validators and an empirical validation questionnaire in the form of student response questionnaires. SSI-based science module on environmental themes for critical thinking skills are declared logically valid with an average score of 73.75%. Module are declared empirically valid because students respond positively to the content, presentment, language, and display validity.
