The result of validation shows 87,96% which means the learning materials developed are valid and they can be used to try out, 2) The product developed is proved to be significant to improve the ability of critical thinking and learning achievement. The result of try out shows the average score for the experiment class is 81,85 and the average score for control class is 71,97. The average score shows that the experiment class has higher score that the control class. Next to test the signification product, it is done by using t-test.
