Abstract

Critical thinking is one of the key skills in the 21st century, including in mathematics education. Mathematics behavior and learning in developing critical thinking skills can also be influenced by students' mathematical dispositions. However, facts in the field show that students' mathematical critical thinking skills and mathematical dispositions are still very low, so researchers tried to analyze the development of mathematical critical thinking skills through a meta-analysis of mathematical dispositions. This meta-analysis review used the Literature Review method through the PRISMA framework obtained from articles and proceedings of national and international conferences indexed by Sinta or Scopus. Based on the results of the study, mathematical critical thinking skills have a significant impact on students' mathematical dispositions through various strategies, models, methods, and ICT-based learning innovations with a STEM approach that promise to develop mathematical critical thinking skills towards students' mathematical dispositions. In addition, this study underlines the importance of continuous exploration of innovative teaching strategies to maximize the development of mathematical critical thinking skills from the perspective of students' mathematical dispositions through follow-up related to the development of innovative teaching resources with the development of textbooks, learning models, or the integration of ICT-based learning media in mathematics learning.
