All aspects is content, language, presentation, and graphics were deemed suitable for classroom use, supporting the module's readiness for implementation. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers a PBL-based teaching module specifically designed for the Merdeka Curriculum, integrating critical thinking indicators and Pancasila Student Profile values.
