This study aims to analyze the role of teachers' pedagogical competence in improving students' critical thinking skills in the Society 5.0 era. Using a literature review method, 10 relevant journal articles from the past five years were collected. The findings of this study indicate that teachers' pedagogical competence plays a strategic role in creating student-centered learning experiences, effectively integrating technology, and designing learning environments that encourage inquiry, discussion, and reflection. Strong pedagogical competence has been shown to positively correlate with improved students' critical thinking skills through innovative learning models such as Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Project-Based Learning (PjBL). Teachers still face challenges related to digital adaptation and the need for ongoing training.
