The development of an educational program prioritizes four skillsto support success in meeting the challenges of the 21st century. One of thepriority skills of the four skills is critical thinking skill. Criticalthinking skill is a skill which shows the performance of individual cognitionin interpreting, analyzing, and doing self-regulation regarding problems andinformation received. Critical thinking skill is closely related toproblem-solving skill and decision-making skill. This study aimed to figure outthe implementation of expressive drawing techniques to adolescents insharpening and developing critical thinking skill in solving their lifeproblems. In addition, this study was conducted to examine the relationshipbetween problem solving strategies used by adolescents with their criticalthinking patterns related to the problems they have. This research used aqualitative approach with descriptive data on exploring the implementation andimpact of expressive drawing technique in stimulating adolescents’ thinkingskill as well as the form of adolescents’ critical thinking pattern which isseen on the mapping pattern drawn after answering questions in interview. Thedata of the study were collected through interviews, documentation studies, andobservation. The data collected in the form of documentation study of the imagewere analyzed to get the development result of expressive drawing techniquetoward adolescent development in critical thinking. Before the data wereanalyzed, the data were divided into 2 parts, namely the application in theearly teens and the image data of the late adolescents. Data analysistechniques used were (1) data collection; (2) data reduction; (3) datainterpretation; (4) perform data triangulation; and (5) drawing conclusions.The results of this study indicate that: (1) providing critical thinking skillsmaterials through expressive drawing techniques can develop and stimulate theability of adolescents in critical thinking to their problems; (2) the patternof adolescent thinking on their problems through expressive drawing techniquescan develop the critical thinking skills of adolescents in determining theaction priority as decision-making to determine strategies and to make choicesin life; (3) the average adolescents are able to think critically better indetermining the priority of complex life problems to be solved systematicallyand more structurally when compared to early adolescents.
