The research aims to compares the modern class (experimental class) and traditional class with the traditional teaching style. Experiment class applies research-based learning methods integration with Cloud Classroom (CCR), and Traditional Classroom teaches with direct explanation and figure from the several textbooks of Astronomy. This research used triangulation methods. The quantitative methods were applied to analyze student achievement tests according to Critical thinking criteria. The qualitative method was applied using observation of student activity and interview for the selected student. Student achievement test followed by pretest, and post-test quasi-experimental research. The data analysis of the post-test indicated a value of sig (2-tailed) 0.002 where p≤0.05, which implied the student achievement on critical thinking skills criteria in the experimental class was better than that in the control class. The activity of students in the experimental class reached 49% as the highest activity for very active activity, 23% active, hesitate 14%, inactive 7%, and very inactive 7%. Based on this result, the implementation of research-based learning integrated with CCR is proven effective in improving student critical thinking skills Astronomy course.
