Abstract

This research aims to explore the implementation of Marzano's dimensions of learning, prompted by the conventional teaching methods still prevalent in the learning process, which primarily involve teacher-centered instruction without active student engagement. This approach has negatively impacted students' critical thinking abilities. The study investigates the application of Marzano's dimensions of learning can give a impact on the critical thinking skills of tenth-grade students at SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Malang. Prerequisite tests including normality and homogeneity tests indicate that the data is suitable for hypothesis testing or t-tests. The results of the t-test show a significance level of p < 0.05, specifically 0.00 < 0.05, suggesting that implementing Marzano's dimensions of learning influences the critical thinking skills of students in tenth grade at SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Malang
