This study aimed to see how Think Pair Share (TPS) learning model combined with multi-representation-based student worksheet affected junior high school students' critical thinking abilities and learning outcomes. This type of research is a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group. The population in this study was all class VII MTsN 4 Banyuwangi (2021/2022). Data collection techniques using test observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis technique used a normality test and Independent Sample T-test with the help of SPSS 25 software.

The experimental class's average learning outcome is 52, whereas the control class's average is 35.6. TPS learning paradigm has a considerable influence on critical thinking abilities and learning.
