The participants involved in the research were consisted of 108 students for critical thinking skill measurement and 129 students for creative thinking skill assessment. The sample was determined by random cluster sampling. The students' critical thinking skills was measured using 5 essay questions which assess aspects of reasoning, inferencing, situations, clarity, and overviewing. In addition, the 4 essay questions were used to assess students' creative thinking skills on aspect of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration.
