A prospective teacher requires a Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in solving pedagogical problems. On the other hand, in reality, this ability was still relatively low. The general purpose of this study was to improve the quality of the learning process in the mathematics learning strategy course to strengthen students HOTS in solving pedagogical problems. Furthermore, the purpose of this research specifically was to determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the module. This study was development research (Research & Development) using Thiagarajan, Semmel and Semmel model (4D model) which consist of four stages: defining, designing, development and disseminating. The instruments used were validation sheet, HOTS test, observation sheet, and questionnaire. The subject of this research was the undergraduate students of class A on trial I and class B on trial II, where each class consists of 48 and 39 people respectively.

The aims of this study were to develop teaching materials using 5E model of instruction to increase students’ higher order thinking skills and to describe their feasibility. The teaching materials (i.e. lesson plan, student worksheet, and higher order thinking skills test) were developed using 4-D model that was proposed by Thiagarajan, Semmel and Semmel. The subject of this study were the developed teaching materials that were tried out to undergraduate students of Biology Department, University of Muhamadiyah Surabaya (UMS) and undergraduate students of Chemistry Department, State University of Surabaya (UNESA). The developmental testing was designed using the one-group pretest and posttest design with three times replication. Additionally, each replication used about 15 undergraduate students. Data were collected using experts’ appraisal, observation, test, and questionnaire and analyzed quantitatively and descriptive qualitatively. The findings of this study indicated that the developed teaching materials were feasible. They were valid according to experts’ appraisal, and they were practice and effective to be implemented in the classroom. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan bahan ajar menggunakan model pembelajaran 5E untuk meningkatkan keterampilan berfikir tingkat tinggi siswa serta mendeskripsikan kelayakan bahan ajar tersebut. Bahan ajar dalam penelitian ini dikembangkan dengan menggunakan  model 4-D yang diusulkan oleh Thiagarajan, Semmel dan Semmel. Subyek dalam penelitian ini adalah bahan ajar yang telah dikembangkan dan diuji cobakan kepada mahasiswa tahun pertama angkatan 2014 di Jurusan Biologi, Universitas Muhamadiyah Surabaya (UMS) dan di Jurusan Kimia, Universitas Negeri Surabaya (UNESA). Desain penelitian yang digunakan ketika uji coba bahan ajar adalah one-group pretest and posttest dengan replikasi sebanyak tiga kali. Selain itu, untuk setiap replikasi menggunakan sekitar 15 mahasiswa. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan penilaian ahli, observasi, tes, dan kuesioner serta dianalisis secara kuantitatif dan deskriptif kualitatif. Penemuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa bahan ajar yang dikembangkan memenuhi kriteria kelayakan, yaitu valid menurut pendapat para ahli, praktis dan efektif ketika diuji cobakan di dalam kelas.

The paper describes the experience of flipped classroom application in teaching ESP. The study was held at the National Aviation University and involved 46 undergraduate students majoring in “Automation and Computer-Integrated Technologies”. In-class learning was organized according to the university schedule and out-of-class activities were conducted by using Google Classroom and a set of digital learning tools. Our observations during teaching with their further analysis and a designed questionnaire were used to reveal the benefits and drawbacks of the flipped classroom. The analysis of the students’ responses has shown that it allows students to study at their own pace, meet their needs, develop their organizational, communication and time management skills and increase their independence and creativity. The paper specifies three main phases of the flipped classroom and determines what skills are developed at each of them. Remembering and understanding are developed at the first phase and the freed classroom time is devoted to developing the skills of applying and analyzing. The higher-order thinking skills of evaluating and creating can be formed both in the classroom and during the post-class phase. The authors have selected digital learning tools which can be recommended for learning ESP in order to facilitate students’ out-of-class activities. Their use can help to shift the emphasis from the teacher to the student, increase students’ engagement in learning and make the course versatile and appropriate to students’ needs. A student survey was conducted at the end of the academic year, and the analysis of students’ responses revealed that they had a positive attitude to implementing the flipped classroom in teaching ESP. As shown by the results of the study, the use of the flipped classroom for teaching ESP is effective as it saves much in-class time for communicative tasks enhancing the development of higher-order thinking skills, unites in-class and out-of-class learning, controls students’ achievement not only in the classroom but outside it and makes the learning process more engaging.

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.)
