The Covid-19 pandemic is happening globally. The spread of the Covid-19 virus is so fast that it has finally caused major changes, especially in the world of education. Learning that was originally carried out face-to-face has now changed to learning from home. Early childhood who are growing and developing in the Covid-19 pandemic are included in the Alpha generation category. Alpha generation children are known as a digital natives. Since birth, Alpha generation children have a close relationship with the presence of technology. During the Covid-19 pandemic, technology was used for learning. Learning activities at home by float or do paper and pencil activities such as thickening letters make Alpha generation children tend to get bored easily. Alpha generation children like challenging activities by training their thinking power to be creative in getting things done. Based on the literature study conducted in this study, appropriate learning for Alpha generation children is STEAM-based learning. STEAM is integrated learning from the branches of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. STEAM-based learning is carried out by scientific inquiry. STEAM scientific investigations such as exploring, analyzing, and creating. Scientific investigations require children to use higher-order thinking skills in solving problems carried out by direct activities (hands-on minds on approach).

During the thirteen years that I taught high school physics and mathematics, I found that my physics students typically came to class excited to learn. As in all science classes, they interacted with fellow classmates while performing laboratory investigations and other group activities requiring higher-order thinking skills. To create a similar experience for my mathematics students, I developed a laboratory investigation for my precalculus class. These students responded just as favorably as my physics students to hands-on data collection activities.

<p>One element of the 2013 curriculum transformation at the elementary school level is the improvement of the learning process and the application of integrated thematic using scientific and familiar development of higher order thinking skills (HOTS) for students. To make this happen, elementary school teachers must have competence in planning, implementing, and evaluating learning that focuses on HOTS, but those who for the most part do not understand and apply. PKM is expected to be able to provide an understanding of teachers in conducting learning and encouraging students in higher-order aspects of thinking. The PKM was held at the teacher working group (KKG) forum which was held once for four meetings. The strategy used was an explanation of the HOTS concept, discussion of the development of indicators of basic competencies (KD), a lattice preparation workshop and problem solving rules, and preparation of questions that support HOTS. From the results that have been done, it can be concluded that a small number of elementary school teachers have done learning and penances that do HOTS; This activity can broaden teachers' insights so that they can produce outcomes consisting of lattices and the development of HOTS questions on thematic learning that addresses the main areas of PKN, Indonesian Language, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Mathematics.</p>
