The existence of digital technology is currently seen as a system that helps teachers satisfy the needs of their students.  The utilization of technology facilitates teachers’ ability to address students' low critical thinking abilities. Therefore, this research studied the utilization of Metaverse   technology   applications based on Science, Technology, Engineering   and Mathematics (Meta-STEM) to improve critical thinking   skills. The study used a quantitative research approach and adopted the true experimental design method. A pre- and post-tests control group   design was used in this study. The research findings revealed a significant difference between the average outcomes of using Metaverse technology applications in the experimental group compared to the control group. Meta-STEM technology supported by the internet provides a fresh perspective on teaching methods   especially in education. The present teaching methods use both virtual learning platforms and conventional face-to-face classrooms.  The interaction process is becoming more dynamic   and obtaining and searching for information is more accessible without spatial or temporal limitations. The implications of Meta-STEM for supporting learning can increase students' ability to gain information. In addition, there are numerous   advantages to using Meta-STEM in the field of education for training and education.   Providing impressive learning methods for students and teachers, making it easier for teachers to convey complex material, increasing students' level of understanding of the learning material presented by teachers  as well as Meta-STEM can provide knowledge to master technology for students.
