Popis: The solar system is one of the intangible learning materials of science because the phenomena that occur could not be presented directly in the classroom such as members of the solar system, the repetition of day and night, the phases of moon, and the eclipse. This resulted is student difficulties to understanding the solar system concept. To overcome these problems, the researcher aims to develop learning media that can also enhance the Critical Thinking Skills (CTS) of students through Multimedia Based Integrated Instruction (MBI2). MBI2 is an integrated multimedia computer which contains learning materials including video, animation and simulation, learning tools, e-books and assessment. To collect and analyze the data genuinely and comprehensively, researchers utilized a pre-experimental method with one group pretest-posttest design for 36 students as research subject. The results of research showed that (1) 43% of students were able to identifying/formulating the criteria of possible answers, (2) 32% of students could giving a reason, (3) 39% of students could giving a hypothesis, (4) 41% students could identifying assumptions or conclusions, (5) 36% of students could select the possible criteria as a solution to the problems. Based on data analysis, it can be concluded that MBI2 could significantly enhance the critical thinking skills of junior high school students on solar system.
