This study focuses on the Teaching Learning (TL) process in developing Higher Order Thinking Skill to SMA Students which is done by the secondary school teachers in Pontianak City. The National Curriculum, namely, Curriculum 2013, well known by its' abbreviation C-13, has got some significant revisions. Among those revisions, the aspect of critical thinking which emphasizes higher order thinking skill (HOTS) became the concern. The curriculum has arranged the procedures and principles of HOTS. As mentioned that the C-13 should be in line with the global competencies, thus, the teachers should understand and implement them in their teaching process. Thus, in this study, the researcher intends to explore the teachers’ knowledge and how the implementation of curriculum 2013 in the teaching-learning process.

International competitiveness, new technologies and changing markets resulted in a paradigm shift in education that demanded to enrich students with higher-order thinking skills, especially critical thinking. National Curriculum Pakistan was developed and launched in 2006. The curriculum of English (2006) has been devised to provide opportunities for language development of learners to equip them with the competencies that help to better adapt to knowledge advancement and ever-changing local and global society. To investigate if the intended curriculum of English has the goals of higher-order thinking and the planned curriculum in the form of textbooks, is designed keeping in view the current demands of competitive competencies for what the National curriculum of English was planned, and to assess the teachers' perspectives and perception about critical thinking, the researcher conducted a qualitative study. In one of the districts of Punjab Pakistan, based upon the highest enrollment, four male and four female colleges from each of its four subdivisions were selected.

This study aims to figure out how students implement their analyzing skill as seen from their activity in examining their peers’ narrative compositions posted in instagram. The researcher collected the data in the form of written expressions (sentences) by observing students’ analyzing skill processes when they examined their peers’ narrative compositions through comment feature in their peers’ captions. The findings showed that the activities of examining peers’ narrative compositions posted in instagram was belong to the real and meaningful transfer learning of near transfer. Next,  two students (middle and high achievers) could fulfill five out of eleven criteria of critical thinking skill. Furthermore, both students solved problems in their own compositions better than in their peers’ compositions. Unfortunately, the low achiever did not give any feedback comments to her peers’ compositions. Thus, she had not applied her analyzing skill yet. In short, the actual evidence of analyzing skill implementation when students analyze their peers’ narrative compositions posted in instagram is possible to justify.

The study was aimed at producing a valid and reliable higher-order thinking skill (HOTS) test instrument using Lombok local cultures as contexts in the junior secondary school mathematics subject matter. The study is developmental research involving a field try-out of 75 students of Grade VIII. Data were analyzed using classical test theories of difficulty levels, discriminating powers, and functioning distractors. The test validity is assessed using the Aiken formula and reliability is estimated by Cronbach Alpha. Findings show that, of the 20 initial multiple-choice items, 15 were valid and reliable and had the characteristics of good test items with a medium-rated difficulty level average of 0.28, a good-rated discriminating power of 0.31), a good-rated reliability coefficient of 0.79, and all distractors well-functioning.

ABSTRAKPembelajaran IPS SD menjadi pembelajaran yang membosankan, karena guru belum menerapkan model, metode, strategi pembelajaran yang inovatif. Guru juga hanya melatih siswa untuk hafalan-hafalan konsep IPS, belum melatih berpikir kritis. Discovery learning sebagai salah satu model pembelajaran memiliki keunggulan mengaktifkan siswa. Tahapan-tahapan model discovery learning mendukung siswa untuk berpikir kritis. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh model discovery learning berbasis higher order thinking skill terhadap kemampan berpikir kritis. Penelitian ini berjenis eksperimen semu, dengan rancangan Non Equivalent Control Group Design. Kelas eksperimen menerapkan model discovery learning berbasis Higher Order Thinking Skill, sedangkan kelas kontrol menerapkan model penugasan dan diskusi berbasis Higher Order Thinking Skill. Penelitian ini menggunakan populasi kelas V SDN Banyu Urip IX Surabaya. Dua kelas dipilih secara random sampling sebagai sampel penelitian. Kelas V-A berjumlah 32 siswa sebagai kelas eksperimen. Kelas V-B berjumlah 30 siswa sebagai kelas kontrol. Intrumen penelitian ini menggunakan soal (pretest dan posttest) dalam bentuk essai berjumlah 4 butir soal. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan penskoran terhadap hasil pretest dan posttest. Uji T digunakan untuk menguji hasil data penelitian. Hasil data penelitian menunjukkan rata-rata gainscore kelas eksperimen sebesar 5,75 lebih tinggi daripada kelas kontrol sebesar 2,6. Hasil data yang menggunakan uji-t. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari nilai t= 7,986 dan signifikansi dua ekor 0,000, sehingga p< 0,05. Hal tersebut membuktikan bahwa terdapat pengaruh model discovery learning berbasis higher order thinking skill terhadap kemampan berpikir kritis.Kata Kunci : Discovery Learning, Higher Order Thinking Skill, Berpikir kritisABSTRACTElementary school social studies learning becomes boring learning, because teachers have not applied innovative models, methods, and learning strategies. The teacher also only trains students to memorize social science concepts, not to train critical thinking. Discovery learning as one of the learning models has the advantage of activating students. The stages of the discovery learning model support students to think critically. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of discovery learning models based on higher order thinking skills on critical thinking skills. This research is a quasi-experimental type, with a Non Equivalent Control Group Design. The experimental class applies the discovery learning model based on the Higher Order Thinking Skill, while the control class applies the assignment and discussion model based on the Higher Order Thinking Skill. This study uses a population of class V SDN Banyu Urip IX Surabaya. Two classes were chosen by random sampling as a research sample. Class V-A numbered 32 students as an experimental class. Class V-B totaling 30 students as a control class. The instruments of this study used 4 questions (pretest and posttest) in the form of essays. Data collection techniques used scoring of the results of the pretest and posttest. T test is used to test the results of research data. The results of the research data show that the average gaincore of the experimental class was 5.75 higher than the control class of 2.6. The results of data using the t-test. This can be seen from the value of t = 7.986 and the significance of two tails is 0.000, so that p <0.05. This proves that there is an influence of discovery learning model based on higher order thinking skills on critical thinking skills.Keywords: Discovery Learning, Higher Order Thinking Skill, Critical Thinking

As Goronga (2013) notes that classroom interaction encourages students to actively participate in teaching learning process. Teacher question plays an important role to trigger students' critical thinking or Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). This paper highlights questions revealed in teaching learning process that triggering students' critical thinking. Class observation and interview is conducted and then analyzed based on Bloom’s taxonomy. Data eventually show that remembering is mostly uttered to stimulate the students to state what they know about the topic and recall particular information. This means teachers find difficulties to practice questions with HOTS aspects. Teachers need to have more practice on how to encourage students to have critical thinking as one of skills in this disruptive era.
