The collection instruments include interviews, student needs questionnaires, validation questionnaires from media and material experts, learning objectives and teaching module flow questionnaires, teacher and student response questionnaires, learning motivation questionnaires, and critical thinking tests. Data analysis comes in a variety of forms, including initial study data analysis, feasible information analysis, practical information analysis, and effective information analysis. Feasibility has a score of 90.3% (very feasible), and practicality has a score of 91.2% (very practical). As well as the effectiveness of learning motivation with a sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000 0.05 and an N-Gain of 0.764 (high), besides critical thinking with a sig. (2-tailed) of 0.047 0.05 and an N-Gain of 0.706 (high). The research results show that interactive multimedia that utilizes the flipped classroom method is feasible, practical, and successful in increasing learning motivation and critical thinking skills.
