We discuss the interpretation of the concept of “learning outcomes”. Theoretical analysis widely represents the interpretations of the learning outcomes of a high school student: academic skills: understanding, application of knowledge to solve problems, synthesis, analysis and evaluation; basic skills and basic knowledge, and skills of a higher order and advanced knowledge; skills of a higher order represented as a system of critical thinking, analytic reasoning, problem solving and written communication; wide abilities interpreted as verbal, quantitative and spatial thinking, understanding, problem solving and decision making. We conclude that each considered approach distinguishes meta-subjective skills, i.e. skills to interact with the quality of information regardless of the context. The ability to measure the meta-skills is discussed on an example of the “Collegiate learning assessment”, realized in the United States.

Abstract. This study aims to determine whether there are any differences in the students’ achievement of higher order thinking skills and the student learning outcomes through the application of problem solving learning assisted by smart chemistry applications on stichiometry. The population was 105 students of X MIPA SMAN 11 Banjarmasin. The sampling technique was conducted by  purposive sampling with 2 experimental classes and 1 control class. Each class consisted of 35 students. The method used was quasi-experimental with a nonequivalent control group design. The data collection was gathered using test and non-test techniques. The data analysis technique used was descriptive and inferential analysis techniques using one way ANAVA test. The results showed that higher order thinking skills, learning outcomes, knowledge, skills and attitudes of the experimental class were better than the control class.Keywords: problem solving, smart chemistry, higher order thinking skills, learning outcomes, stoichiometry.Abstrak.

Collegiate Learning Assessment

The Collegiate Learning Assessment Test (CLA) has become popular and highly recommended, praised for its reliability and validity. I argue that while the CLA may be a commendable test for measuring critical-thinking, problem-solving, and logical-reasoning skills, those who are scoring students’ answers to the test’s questions are rendering the CLA invalid.

AbstractThe present study attempted to examine students’ learning gains in critical thinking, problem solving, and effective communication after 1-year university study under a new 4-year undergraduate curriculum based on students’ performance on the Collegiate Learning Assessment Plus (CLA+). One hundred and fifty freshmen and 150 sophomores at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) completed the CLA+ in 2013–2014 academic year. Results showed that sophomores had better performance in CLA+ than freshmen on problem solving, effective communication, and critical thinking. Compared with freshmen, fewer sophomores were classified as ‘Below Basic’ at mastering the related skills. The findings support the effectiveness of the new 4-year undergraduate curriculum, particularly the General University Requirements, in promoting students’ development in desired graduate attributes. However, students’ language barrier might affect their CLA+ scores which led to the small effect size in the differences between freshmen and sophomores.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) menemukan pengaruh model Problem Solving berorientasi Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) terhadap hasil belajar fisika dan (2) mendeskripsikan kemampuan pemecahan masalah peserta didik dengan pembelajaran model Problem Solving berorientasi Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Jenis penelitian ini adalah Quasi Experiment Research tipe nonequivalent control group design dan one group pretest-posttest design. Hasil  penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (1) terdapat perbedaan hasil belajar yang signifikan antara peserta didik yang diajar dengan pembelajaran model Problem Solving Berorientasi HOTS dengan peserta didik yang diajar dengan model pembelajaran konvensional ( pada taraf signifikan 5%) dan (2) terdapat peningkatan kemampuan pemecahan masalah peserta didik dengan pembelajaran model Problem Solving Berorientasi HOTS dengan adanya kenaikan hasil tes kemampuan pemecahan masalah peserta didik setelah diajarkan dengan pembelajaran model Problem Solving Berorientasi HOTS sebesar 44,08. Berdasarkan penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh pembelajaran model Problem Solving berorientasi HOTS terhadap hasil belajar fisika dan meingkatkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah peserta didik.Kata Kunci: Problem Solving, Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), Hasil Belajar Fisika, Kemampuan Pemecahan MasalahThis research aimed to (1) find the effect of HOTS-oriented Problem Solving models on physics learning outcomes and (2) describe the Problem Solving abilities of students with HOTS-oriented Problem Solving learning models. This type of research was a Quasi Experiment Research with type of nonequivalent control group design and one group pretest-posttest design. The results of the research showed that (1) there are significant differences in learning outcomes between students taught by learning the HOTS-oriented Problem Solving model and students taught with conventional learning model ( at the 5% significance level) and (2) there was an increase in students' Problem Solving abilities with learning HOTS-oriented Problem Solving model with an increase in the results of the student's Problem Solving ability tests after being taught with learning HOTS-Oriented Problem Solving models, 44.08. Based on results of research, it can be concluded that there is an influence of HOTS-oriented Problem Solving learning model on physics learning outcomes and improve students Problem Solving abilities. Keywords: Problem Solving, Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), Physics Learning Outcomes, Problem Solving Abilities

Abstract. The change in the educational paradigm in the 21st century requires students to have good basic knowledge and understanding to develop Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Chemical equilibrium is an abstract material and complex, so it requires good thinking skills to understand the concepts. This Study aims to determine the effect of the application of guided inquiry models on HOTS in chemical equilibrium. This research uses Pre-Experimental Design with One Shot Case Study model with 25 students of Billfath University as subjects. The data were collected using the HOTS test instrument in the form of 15 multiple choice questions. Hypothesis testing used the Independent Sample T-test (non-parametric). The results showed (1) the high-level learning outcomes of students with high initial abilities were better than students with low initial abilities, (2) there was a significant effect of applying the model Guided inquiry learning towards student high-level learning outcomes.

Surf breaks are finite, valuable, and vulnerable natural resources, that not only influence community and cultural identities, but are a source of revenue and provide a range of health benefits. Despite these values, surf breaks largely lack recognition as coastal resources and therefore the associated management measures required to maintain them. Some countries, especially those endowed with high-quality surf breaks and where the sport of surfing is accepted as mainstream, have recognized the value of surfing resources and have specific policies for their conservation. In Aotearoa New Zealand surf breaks are included within national environmental policy. Aotearoa New Zealand has recently produced Management Guidelines for Surfing Resources (MGSR), which were developed in conjunction with universities, regional authorities, not-for-profit entities, and government agencies. The MGSR provide recommendations for both consenting authorities and those wishing to undertake activities in the coastal marine area, as well as tools and techniques to aid in the management of surfing resources. While the MGSR are firmly aligned with Aotearoa New Zealand’s cultural and legal frameworks, much of their content is applicable to surf breaks worldwide. In the United States, there are several national-level and state-level statutes that are generally relevant to various aspects of surfing resources, but there is no law or policy that directly addresses them. This paper describes the MGSR, considers California’s existing governance frameworks, and examines the potential benefits of adapting and expanding the MGSR in this state.
