Abstract: This research relates to the implementation of Problem Solving model in Banyu Landas Elementary School. The research objective is to increase students’ Higher Order Thingking Skills (HOTS). The research was conducted by using classroom action research (CAR) method through 2 cycles. Ten six class students of SDN Banyu Landas were used as research subject. The data collection used obeservation sheets and HOT oriented achievement test. The data were qualitatively analyzed with percentage technique. The result of research stated that (1) students’ Higher Order Thingking Skills (HOTS) increased from analysis skills 77,85% in the first cycle up to  synthesys skills 86,58% in the end of second cycle (2) the quality of teacher’s activity increased  from 58,41% in the first cycle  up to 71,14% in the end of second cycle; (2) students’ activity incresed  from 68,39% in the first cycle  up to 70,10% in the end of second cycle.              Keywords: Higher Order Thinking Skills, teacher activity, student activity , Problem Solving. Abstrak: Penelitian ini berkenaan dengan penerapan model Problem Solving di SDN Banyu Landas.

AbstrakSecara umum capaian ketrampilan berpikir tingkat tinggi peserta didik masih rendah dibanding negara lain. Untuk mengembangkan keterampilan berpikir  tingkat  tinggi, pendidik dituntut untuk menciptakan suasana belajar yang  mendukung  dan  menggunakan   strategi pembelajaran. Upaya meningkatkan ketrampilan berpikir peserta didik dapat dilakukan dengan meningkatkan ketrampilan metakognisinya. Ada berbagai jenis strategi metakognitif yang dapat dipilih pendidik, satu diantaranya menggunakan strategi pemecahan masalah (problem solving). Dalam proses pemecahan masalah, individu menggunakan kedua kemampuan kognitif dan keterampilan praktis, yang meliputi kegiatan metakognitif seperti analisis, sintesis dan evaluasi. Pembelajaran  berbasis masalah merupakan pendekatan pembelajaran yang digunakan untuk merangsang berpikir tingkat tinggi siswa dalam situasi yang berorientasi pada masalah yang nyata, termasuk di dalamnya belajar bagaimana belajar. AbstractIn general, higher order thinking skills achievements of learners is still low compared to other countries. To develop higher order thinking skills, educators are required to create a learning atmosphere that supports and use learning strategies. Efforts to improve thinking skills that learners can do to improve metacognitive skills. There are different types of metacognitive strategies that can be selected educators, one of which uses problem solving strategies. In the process of solving problems, individuals using both cognitive abilities and practical skills, which include metacognitive activities such as analysis, synthesis and evaluation. Problem-based learning is an instructional approach used to stimulate students' higher order thinking in situations oriented real problems, including learning how to learn.

Learning Arabic is more dominant as a skill than a Science. The learners’ goals are able to use Arabic both spoken and written well and correctly. While HOTS is more dominant in requiring learners to think integrally. Therefore, it is important to consider the extent to which the Ministerial Regulation accommodates HOTS through a study of the basic competence of Arabic contained in it. This study is a literature review of the basic competence of Arabic in the Decree of the Minister of Religion (KMA) number 183 in 2019 in HOTS perspective. The object of this study is the basic competence of Arabic in KMA 183 in 2019. The result shows the basic competence of Arabic in KMA 183 in 2019 to accommodate the ability in higher order thinking such as problem solving, critical thinking, and reasoning. While the Basic Competence in KMA didn’t achieve creative thinking and decision making.

Abstract. This study aims to determine whether there are any differences in the students’ achievement of higher order thinking skills and the student learning outcomes through the application of problem solving learning assisted by smart chemistry applications on stichiometry. The population was 105 students of X MIPA SMAN 11 Banjarmasin. The sampling technique was conducted by  purposive sampling with 2 experimental classes and 1 control class. Each class consisted of 35 students. The method used was quasi-experimental with a nonequivalent control group design. The data collection was gathered using test and non-test techniques. The data analysis technique used was descriptive and inferential analysis techniques using one way ANAVA test. The results showed that higher order thinking skills, learning outcomes, knowledge, skills and attitudes of the experimental class were better than the control class.Keywords: problem solving, smart chemistry, higher order thinking skills, learning outcomes, stoichiometry.Abstrak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui ada tidaknya perbedaan pencapaian keterampilan berpikir tingkat tinggi dan hasil belajar peserta didik, melalui penerapan pembelajaran problem solving berbantuan aplikasi smart chemistry pada topik stikiometri.

<p><em>Teachers are always required to always update the changes that occur, so that learning is able to prepare students to face the changes that occur. One of the important things that can be done by teachers is to develop HOTS-oriented learning so that students become accustomed to critical thinking so that they are able to develop their creativity. The purpose of this study is to determine the concept of higher order thinking skills, aspects of higher order thinking skills, HOTS-oriented learning characteristics. The results of this study are: Higher order thinking skills are thinking skills that are not just remembering, restating, and also referring without processing, but thinking skills to examine information critically, creatively, and able to solve problems, Skill-oriented learning higher order thinking is learning that involves 3 (three) aspects of higher order thinking skills, namely: transfer of knowledge, critical and creative thinking, and problem solving. The characteristics of HOTS-oriented learning must make students active in thinking.</em></p>

In today's information age, it is increasingly important to help learners develop higher order thinking skills as well as a flexible knowledge base. Research in cognitive science and education suggests that both of these aims can be achieved by having students learn through solving problems. Problem-based learning (PBL), with its emphasis on both strategies and content, is particularly well suited to achieving these aims. In PBL, student learning begins with a problem to be solved and includes cycles of reflection on the problem-solving experience. This paper will discuss the tutorial process in PBL and how it can be used to cultivate higher order thinking skills.
