- Abstract
“The ability to think critically is an essential skill that students must possess when facing challenges in the academic and professional world. Records Management courses require critical thinking skills to understand the basic concepts of records management and apply them effectively in authentic contexts. This study aims to analyse students’ critical thinking skills in the Archives Management course. The research method used is descriptive research with a quantitative approach. The research sample consisted of 77 students who were taking Archives Management courses. The research instrument used is a critical thinking ability test that has been adapted from a measuring tool that has been tested for its validity. The analysis results show that most students still have critical thinking skills that need to be improved, as evidenced by the average critical thinking ability in the archives management course of 57.71% in the less urgent category. Students facing problems analysing archival information, evaluating management decisions, and making the right decisions also need improvement. Several factors affect students’ critical thinking skills, including the need for more use of learning media and learning approaches used by lecturers so students’ thinking abilities could be more optimal.”
