The results showed: (1) learning result of social studies using CTL learning approach is higher than that of social studies using conventional learning approach with average score of CTL approach 82.00, and the average conventional approach 72.50 (2) the result of social studies with high critical thinking score is 80.00 and low critical thinking score is 70.67.
