Abstract
This study aimed at identifying the effect of two developed units of the geography textbook for the 10th grade on students' acquisition of critical thinking skills in the light of the geographical inquiry approach. The semi- experimental approach was used to achieve the aim of current study. The sample of the study consisted of (88) female students from the Um Habbiya Secondary School for Girls, a public school in the Ministry of Education in Jordan. They were randomly assigned into two groups: an experimental group (45) students and controlled (43) students. To achieve the aim of the study, two units were developed and critical thinking skills test was prepared and researcher verified its validity and reliability. To answer the study questions, the means, standard deviations and ANCOVA were used to examine the significance of statistical differences and Eta Square to examine the effect of the experimental variable. The results showed statistically significant differences at the level of statistical significance (α = 0.05) in favor of the experimental group that received the developed units in the light of the geographical inquiry approach compared to the traditional ones. Based upon the findings, the study concludes by offering a number of recommendations.

الملخص
هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى الكشف عن أثر وحدتين مطورتين من كتاب الجغرافيا، للصف العاشر، في ضوء منهج الاستقصاء الجغرافي في اكتساب الطالبات لمهارات التفكير الناقد، وقد استُخدم المنهج شبه التجريبي؛ لتحقيق أهداف الدراسة، وتكون أفراد الدراسة من (88) طالبة، من طالبات مدرسة ام حبيبة الثانوية للبنات، التابعة لوزارة التربية والتعليم الأردنية، وتم توزيعهن الى شعبتين: تجريبية تكونت من (45) طالبة وضابطة تكونت من (43) طالبة. ولتحقيق أهداف الدراسة أُعدت أدوات الدراسة المناسبة، والمتمثلة في وحدتين مطورتين من كتاب الجغرافيا، واختبار مهارات التفكير الناقد. وللإجابة عن أسئلة الدراسة؛ تم استخدام المتوسطات الحسابية، والانحرافات المعيارية، وتحليل التباين الاحادي المشترك (ANCOVA)؛ لفحص دلالة الفروق الاحصائية، ومربع ايتا (Eta Square)؛ لفحص حجم أثر المتغير التجريبي. وقد أظهرت النتائج وجود فروق ذات دلالة احصائية عند مستوى الدلالة =0.05) α): بين المجموعتين في مهارات التفكير الناقد لصالح المجموعة التجريبية، تعزى إلى الوحدتين المطورتين في ضوء منهج الاستقصاء الجغرافي. وأوصت الدراسة بضرورة تطوير كتب الجغرافيا في ضوء منهج الاستقصاء الجغرافي والاهتمام بمهارات التفكير الناقد.
