The lack of learning resources and innovation in mathematics learning with the use of technology that can facilitate students to study by themselves is the cause of low critical thinking skills. Therefore, innovation in mathematics learning that is relevant to students' needs and can facilitate independent learning activities such as e-modules is needed. This study aims to develop and test the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of a microlearning-based e-module in improving the critical thinking skills of vocational school students. The Four-D model of research and development was applied with media experts, subject matter experts, and 36 students from Dwijendra Denpasar Vocational School as subjects. The results showed that the SIMPLE E-Module was valid, practical, and effective in improving critical thinking skills, which were measured in terms of analytical, evaluative, and advanced argumentation skills. This study shows that the microlearning approach can influence the improvement of critical thinking skills. Further studies can develop microlearning-based digital learning media that facilitate the improvement of further argumentation skills.
