The aim of this study is: a) Knowing the mechanism of the Inquiry Model can be used to improve critical thinking skills in students' social studies learning, b) Knowing how to apply the inquiry model to social studies learning in the classroom, c) Knowing the characteristics of critical thinking, d) Knowing the supporting components of increasing critical thinking skills by applying the inquiry model, and e) Knowing the stages of how to build critical thinking patterns and their effects in improving critical thinking skills by applying the inquiry model. The steps of the Inquiry model are the basis for critical thinking and can be used as a thinking map.
