A major goal of the mathematics curriculum for third- and fourth-grade students is the development of numeration and computation skills. These skills are frequently maintained through routine drill. Most gifted students have a strong dislike for drill, preferring activities that require the use of higher cognitive processes. One way of providing for these students is to present them with problems related to the basic content that also enhance their problem-solving abilities.

This research has been conducted to evaluate the effects of integrated science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education on academic achievement, reflective thinking skills towards problem solving and permanence in learning in science education. This study, which used pre-test–post-test and semi-experimental model with permanence test, control group as a research model, was conducted with 44 students attending to the 6th grade of a public school in 2015–2016 academic year. The study consisted of the control group with constructivist teaching and the experimental group with integrated STEM education. Academic achievement test and reflective thinking scale towards problem solving were applied. In SPSS 24 package program, analysis of quantitative data was performed using t-test and Mann–Whitney U test. In conclusion, the integrated STEM education does not significantly increase success, reflective thinking skills towards problem solving and their effects on permanence according to constructivist teaching, but provides positive contributions to academic achievement.   Keywords: Integrated STEM education, science education, academic achievement, problem solving, reflective thinking skills.

This study aims to determine the application of What 's In Here game based on the Team Games Tournament (TGT) model to foster critical thinking skills of fourth grade students at Gabus 04 SDN Pati. This research is quantitative research. This study uses One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The population in this study were all fourth grade students at Gabus 04 Pati SDN totaling 31 students in the 2018/2019 school year. The instruments used are (1) Test. (2) Questionnaire, (3) Observation, and (3) Documentation. Data analysis using technical analysis of normality test data, hypothesis testing (t-test), and N-Gain Test. The normality test is used to find out whether the class is normally distributed or not. Hypothesis testing uses the t-test. The N- Gain test is used to calculate students' critical thinking abilities. The results of the research conducted can be concluded that the game What 's In Here can be applied to foster critical thinking skills of fourth grade students at Gabus SDN 04 Pati. This can be seen from the improvement of students' critical thinking skills. Besides that it is reinforced by the results of t-test calculations obtained by tcount for critical thinking skills of 7.232 and ttable of 1.694 because of tcount (7.232)> ttable (1.694), so this shows that the t test of critical thinking skills is significant. While the results of the observations carried out the highest aspects, namely the synthesizing skills of 78.2%.

One of the 2013 curriculum transformation elements in elementary schools is strengthening the learning process and familiarizing the development of higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) for students.  This needs to be supported by teaching materials to support HOTS-based learning.This research aims to analyze the need for HOTS-based mathematics teaching materials in elementary schools. This research uses a descriptive approach. The subjects of this research were fourth-grade students of public elentary school in Tunjungan Blora area. The data collected in this research uses observation sheets, interviews, and document studies. Observations and interviews were carried out to teachers and fourth-grade students. Otherwise, the document studies were carried out on learning resources used in mathematics learning. The validity test data was conducted by using triangulation techniques. The results showed that:  first, the characteristics of mathematics teaching materials used in elementary schools of Blora Regency have not described the HOTS material. Second, the need for teachers shows that the problems faced by teachers in learning mathematics have limited learning resources. Third, the student's need toward teaching material products is shown by the low interest of students in learning mathematics. Fourth, students have not been invited to think critically in learning mathematics.

This study aims to improve critical thinking skills and mathematics learning outcomes of fourth-grade students of SD Tingkir Tengah 02 Salatiga in the second semester of the 2018/2019 academic year. Critical thinking and learning outcomes are low because the teacher uses the lecture method. The author chooses the Open-Ended model assisted by powerpoint media as a solution. Research procedures include planning, action, observation, and reflection. The results showed an increase from the initial condition with 9 students or 25.71% completed and 29 students or 74.29% not complete. The implementation of the first cycle results obtained 29 students or 82.86% completed and 6 students or 17.14% did not complete. Cycle II as a follow-up and improvement of the first cycle with the acquisition of achieving attainment of 35 students or 100%. The results obtained by the conclusion of the application of Open-Ended learning assisted by powerpoint media can improve critical thinking skills and mathematics learning outcomes of fourth-grade students of SD Tingkir Tengah 02 Salatiga second semester of the 2018/2019 academic year.

<p style="text-align: justify;">Problem-solving is considered one of the thinking skills that must be possessed in 21<sup>st</sup>-century education because problem-solving skills are required to solve all problems that arise. The problem-solving stages that can be used are Polya's four steps, namely, understanding the problem, devising a plan, carrying out the plan, and looking back. Problem-solving skills are essential for solving word problems. Word problems based on arithmetic operations are divided into three types: one-step, two-step, and multistep. This qualitative research aimed to see problem-solving skills viewed from the type of word questions and elementary school students’ third, fourth, and fifth grades. A purposive sampling technique with 22 third-grade students, 28 fourth-grade students, and 21 fifth-grade students was used. The data were collected using documentation, testing, and interview methods. The findings of the study showed that fourth-grade students’ problem-solving skills are better than those of third-grade students, and the problem-solving skills of fifth-grade students are better than those of fourth-grade students. The percentage of Polya's steps always decreases because not all students master problem-solving. Based on the types of questions, the percentage of the one-step word problem is better than that of the two-step while the percentage of the two-step word problems is higher than that of the multistep.</p>
