(This study has been conducted with the purpose of improving the level of HOTS (Higher order thinking skills) of Form 2 students through learning Thirukkural. For this study, the Thirukkural, a well-known literary work of Tamil Language was taken. Thus, this research was carried out in a secondary school which is located at Taiping, Perak. The research was carried out under the design of action research. The sample of this study consisted of ten Form 2 students. Besides that, a teacher also interviewed in order to know the students' personality in learning Thirukkural. In this research, the learning process of Thirukkural approach was implemented for 6 weeks. There are 6 couplets of Thirukkural selected according to the syllabus of Form 1 and Form 2. This six couplets of Thirukkural used to test the level of HOTS. The questions were created based on Thirukkural, according to Revised Bloom's Taxonomy. The data of the study was collected through pre-test, the questions asked in Thirukkural classes and post-test via qualitative and quantitative data collection tools. The findings obtained through qualitative and quantitative data collections showed that the level of HOTS through learning Thirukkural among Form 2 students has improved.)

This research aimed to examine the effectiveness of the INSTAD strategy in comparison to other teaching strategies such as Inquiry, student team’s achievement division (STAD), and lecture method, to reduce the gap of higher order thinking skills between Upper Academic (UA) and Lower Academic (LA) groups of students.The research partipants were 136 7th grade students in total, which consisted of two groups of 36 UA and 36 LA students. The students were selected through a stratified random sampling from 27 Public Junior High Schools in Surakarta, Indonesia. The treatment classes were determined through an intact group. The research design employed pre-test-post-test non-equivalent control group of quasi experiment. The higher order thinking skills were measured by essay test sheet as an instrument. Data were analysed by utilizing ANCOVA with the pre-test score as the covariate. The findings revealed that INSTAD have optimally improved higher order thinking skills in comparison with the Inquiry, STAD, and lecture method. INSTAD's were proven able to reduce the gap of higher order thinking skills between UA and LA students rather than Inquiry, STAD, and lecture method as teaching strategies. Keywords: higher order thinking skills, inquiry-based learning, student team’s achievement division, INSTAD strategy.

Developing critical thinking and problem solving skills of students are some of the important goals that every school must set. This study determined the effectiveness of non-traditional activities to develop mathematical higher order thinking skills of grade seven students. This study employed the non-equivalent control group experimental design, which involved 83 grade 7 students of Sawata National High School. There were two sections used in this study, the control group which the researcher used the traditional lecture activity and the experimental group, were the students exposed to non-traditional activities: manipulative activities, computer-aided activities, and reflective writing activities. The specific subject matters covered were the second-grading mathematics seven topics which are measurement and measuring of length, measuring mass/weight and volume, and measuring angles, time and temperature. The data were gathered using the multiple choice teacher’s made test in the pre-test and post-test. Prior to the study, the higher order thinking skills of the two groups had no significant difference. The result changed after the treatment was given. The study concludes that the used of non-traditional activities were effective over the traditional activity in the development of the higher order thinking skills of the students. The study recommends integration of non-traditional activities to develop the higher order thinking skills of the students.Keywords— Education, non-traditional activities, higher order thinking skills, experimental, non-equivalent, Davao City, Philippines

THE EFFECT OF SCIENCE ADAPTIVE ASSESSMENT TOOL BASED ON KOLB LEARNING STYLE ON HIGH-LEVEL THINKING SKILLSAbstractThis study aimed to determine the effect of the Science Adaptive Assessment Tool (SAA Tool) based on the KOLB learning style on student's high order thinking skills (HOTS). This study used a quantitative quasi-experiment method with a post-test only design. The subjects in this study were 79 students of 8th grade at SMP Al- Zahra Indonesia Tangerang Selatan in the 2018/2019 school year who studied the material of Living organisms and Simple Machine. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the student's higher-order thinking skills who used Biology and Physics's SAA Tool compared with the control class. Biology's SAA Tool influences the results of higher-order thinking skills towards four learning styles. They affect of diverger, assimilator, converger, and accommodator. The Physics's SAA Tool influences the results of higher-order thinking skills on two learning styles of diverger and accommodator. The results of this study indicate the potential application of the SAA Tool as an answer to the problems of digital assessment to measure higher-order thinking skills as one of the dominant thinking skills of the 21st-century skills.

This study investigates the effect of inquiry-based learning with socio-scientific issues on students' higher-order thinking skills in the first year based on chemistry topics. This study used a quasi-experiment design as a method. A sample of 96 students in three classes was selected and was divided into two groups. An experimental group used two classes (68 students) that received the instruction by inquiry-based learning with socio-scientific issues, while the control group (28 students) received instruction using verification learning. The data were collected using pretest and post-test. The results were analyzed using SPSS 16.0 for windows software by employing ANOVA and effect size. This study showed that the experimental groups have a higher score in Higher Order Thinking Skills than the control group students, and there was a significant difference between the experimental groups and the control group with a large effect size. Thus, this study concluded that inquiry-based learning with socio-scientific issues helps conduct the classroom's learning strategies to improve students' higher-order thinking skills.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of contextual media with Arduino Uno-based media on students’ higher-order thinking skills on density material. The population of this research is class XII IPA MAN 1 Pontianak totaling six classes, with samples of class XII IPA A and class XII IPA B. This study is quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest group design—sampling with a simple random technique to determine the experimental and control classes. The data collection technique used is a test in the form of pretest and post-test questions. The data analysis technique used is the one-party t-test based on the sig value and the normalized gain (N-gain). The results of research data analysis showed that contextual learning media with media based on Arduino Uno had a positive effect and improved students’ higher-order thinking skills than students who used conventional media. It is indicated by the results of the t-test with a value of sig. The post-test score is 0.001, and the results of the improvement test with the N-gain of the experimental class are in the medium category, higher than the control class category, namely low. So that learning physics using learning media based on Ardouno Uno has a positive effect and can improve students’ Higher Order Thinking skills.
