Introduction: 21st century skills such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration (4Cs), and learning independence are essential competencies that learners must have to face the challenges of the global era that are important to integrate with technology. However, in many schools, these skills are still low, largely due to the dominance of teacher-centred learning methods and the lack of optimal use of technology.
Purpose: To analyse the effect of SaLDI Biology learning model integrated with TPACK on students' critical thinking skills, creativity, communication, collaboration, and learning independence.
Methods: This research is a quasi-experiment with post-test control group design. The population was class XI students of SMAN 14 Makassar. A random sample of 64 students was divided into experimental and control groups. Instruments included a description test and observation sheet. Data analysis used MANOVA test to measure differences in 4C skills and learning independence between groups.
Results: The research results of this study are the SaLDI Biology learning model integrated with TPACK can improve critical and creative thinking skills, communication, collaboration and learning independence. The sig evidences this value <0.05.
Conclusions: The implementation of the TPACK-integrated SaLDI Biology learning model can improve critical thinking skills, creativity, communication, collaboration, and learning independence. These findings indicate that the model is an innovative strategy to develop 21st century skills (4C).
