Abstract: The guided inquiry learning model is a learning model that has the potential to improve students' critical thinking abilities. Guided inquiry is a learning model designed to train students to investigate problems and solve them based on facts. This research aims to examine the effectiveness of the guided inquiry learning model on students' critical thinking skills in science subjects. The methodology in this research uses Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with the help of PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and MetaAnalyses). The scientific articles used as research data were 40 articles originating from international journals indexed by Scopus. Then it was reviewed again based on school level, namely upper secondary school level, as many as 12 articles were listed. Article validation is carried out by considering articles that can be accessed freely, the quality of research methodology, the topic of the article, and references in the last 5 years. The data collection technique uses descriptive analysis. So based on the literature study that has been carried out, this guided inquiry learning model is very effective in improving students' critical thinking abilities.
