This article describes the results of Action Research conducted in an ESP classroom of Dhofar University located in Oman. Following the call of Oman Vision 2040 to emphasize educational practices that promote the development of higher-order cognitive processes, this study raises the following question: Can an online multiple choice question (MCQ) quiz tap into the higher-order cognitive skills of apply, analyze and evaluate? This question was also critical at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic when Omani universities switched to the online learning mode. The researchers administered an online MCQ quiz to 35 undergraduate students enrolled in an ESP course for Engineering and Sciences. The results showed that MCQ quizzes could be developed to tap into higher-order thinking skills when the stem of the MSQ is developed as a task or a scenario. The study also revealed that students performed better on MCQs that tap into low-level cognitive skills. This result can be attributed to the prevalent practice in Oman to develop assessment tools that tap only into a level of Bloom’s taxonomy, which involves the cognitive process of retrieving memorized information. The significance of the study lies in its pedagogical applications. The study calls for the use of teaching and assessment practices that target the development of higher-order thinking skills, which is aligned with the country’s strategic direction reflected in Oman vision 2040.

The research about quantitative analysis towards higher order thinking skill of chemistry multiple questions for university admission is carried out in the acceleration class of SMAN Modal Bangsa. This research aims to analyze the test of validity, reliability, correlation between difficulty index and discriminatory power, functioning and nonfunctioning distractors of chemistry multiple questions quantitatively which are frequently offered to students in national university admission. It used a descriptive-quantitative method and purposive sampling technique. Students of the acceleration class were selected purposely because they have been frequently answering the higher order thinking questions. Data were collected using 20 multiple choice questions developed from questions banks. Before questions used for students, the questions were assessed by two validators. The result of the validity test shows that 100% questions were valid with an average scale score of 0.93 (best valid). Further analysis used a reliability test to indicate the correlation of item score and total score of questions symbolized by Cronbach alpha of 0.94, 0.92 and 0.89 for aspect of content, construction, language or culture, respectively. The correlation between difficulty index and discriminatory power was reliable with correlation coefficient of 0.842. The final analysis is done towards distractor function, and it shows that overall 83.75% was functioning distractors. Then, nine questions or 45% met ideal expectations with four functioning distractors. Therefore, the most higher order thinking chemistry multiple questions have good quality or feasible to be used in university admission.    Keywords: higher order thinking, validity, reliability, difficulty index, discriminatory power and distractors

An increasing advanced civilization requires educational institutions to be more adaptive. This challenge is realized by revising the 2013 curriculum, which integrates higher-order thinking skills. This study aims to describe the cognitive dimensions of higher-order thinking in textbooks on the aspects of analyzing (C4), evaluating (C5), and creating (C6). This study used descriptive qualitative method. The data source used in this study is the Indonesian language textbook for Class XI SMA published by Erlangga. Data collection techniques in this study are content analysis, reading and note-taking techniques. The data validity technique in this study used theoretical triangulation and expert judgement. The data analysis technique used an interactive data analysis model. The results of this study showed that in the Indonesian language textbook XI grade published by Erlangga, there were 170 questions that lead to the cognitive dimension of high-level thinking dominated by analyzing skills of 63 with a percentage of 37.06%, 55 questions evaluating with a percentage of 32.36%, and 52 questions of creating skill with a percentage of 30.59%. In general, the form of questions in the book is dominated by description questions and a few multiple choices. Even though it is presented with multiple choice questions, it does not eliminate the cognitive element of high-level thinking skills. Type of multiple choice questions can be used to assess low to high levels of cognition.

This study is aimed at (1) analyzing reading exercises based Bloom’s taxonomy for VIII grade in English on Sky textbook. (2) Found the distribution of the lower and higher order thinking skill in reading exercises. (3) To reason for level reading exercises. After analyzed the data, the result of the data analysis also infers that the six levels of Bloom’s taxonomy in reading exercises weren’t applied totally. The creating skill doesn’t have distribution in reading exercise, and the understanding – remembering level more dominant than another levels. The distribution of the higher order thinking level was lower than the lower order thinking level and the six levels are not appropriate with the proportion for each level of education based Bloom’s taxonomy, such as the distribution of the creating level in the reading exercise must be a concern because no question that belong to the creating level. It was concluded that reading exercises in English on Sky textbook cannot improve students' critical thinking skills for VIII grade.

Abstract Background Analytic thinking skills are important to the development of physicians. Therefore, educators and licensing boards utilize multiple-choice questions (MCQs) to assess these knowledge and skills. MCQs are written under two assumptions: that they can be written as higher or lower order according to Bloom’s taxonomy, and students will perceive questions to be the same taxonomical level as intended. This study seeks to understand the students’ approach to questions by analyzing differences in students’ perception of the Bloom’s level of MCQs in relation to their knowledge and confidence. Methods A total of 137 students responded to practice endocrine MCQs. Participants indicated the answer to the question, their interpretation of it as higher or lower order, and the degree of confidence in their response to the question. Results Although there was no significant association between students’ average performance on the content and their question classification (higher or lower), individual students who were less confident in their answer were more than five times as likely (OR = 5.49) to identify a question as higher order than their more confident peers. Students who responded incorrectly to the MCQ were 4 times as likely to identify a question as higher order than their peers who responded correctly. Conclusions The results suggest that higher performing, more confident students rely on identifying patterns (even if the question was intended to be higher order). In contrast, less confident students engage in higher-order, analytic thinking even if the question is intended to be lower order. Better understanding of the processes through which students interpret MCQs will help us to better understand the development of clinical reasoning skills.

The background of this research was the demands of the industrial revolution 4.0 era. Hence, the students should have high-oder thinking skills and lecturers must be able to create learning that was able to achieve these demands. This study examined the effect of Blended Learning and Project Based Learning in improving the students’ Higher Order Thinking Skill (HOTS). This research was an experimental research with a quasi-experiment design type. The sample of this research was 90 students from Primary School Teacher Education Department at State University of Padang. This research proven that the obtained t count = 4.374 with df = 392.24 and sig (1 way) = 0.000 where sig (1 way) <0.05. It concluded that there was an improving of students’ HOTS ability that learned using Blended Learning and Project Based Learning rather than of using Blended Learning only. This research of using Blende-Learning and Project Based learning could improve on students' higher-order thinking skills. This research implied using Blended Learning and Project Based learning model was an alternative to improve Higher Order Thinking Skill (HOTS).
