Abstract
The purposes of this classroom action research were to 1) compare grade-11 students' pre- and post-learning analytical thinking skills by using inquiry-based learning (5E) emphasizing analytical thinking and 2) compare grade-11 students' post-learning analytical thinking skills by using inquiry-based learning (5E) emphasizing analytical thinking with a criterion of 70 percent. The target group consisted of 25 grade-11 students from a school in the secondary educational service area office Chanthaburi Trat during the first semester of the 2023 academic year, selected using purposive sampling. The research tools include learning management plans and analytical thinking tests. The data were statistically analyzed by using percentage, average, standard, the t-test for Dependent samples, and t-test for One sample and the criterion of 70 percent. The study discovered 1) the results of grade-11 students' analytical thinking skills were higher than before learning, with statistical significance at the level of .05, and 2) in comparing the criterion of 70 percent was higher than before learning
