Blended Web Mobile Learning (BWML) Model to Improve Students’ Higher Order Thinking Skills

Abstract

The results of literature review show that Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Hybrid Learning models have been proven to increase students’ higher order thinking skills (HOTS), but also still have weaknesses that need to be refined. To complete the weaknesses in the implementation of the PBL Model and the Hybrid Learning Model, it is necessary to develop an Innovative Learning Model that can increase students' HOTS. The BWML (Blended Web Mobile Learning) Model is a learning model that integrates the Hybrid Learning model with PBL model, which is supported by the use of MoLearn application in each learning activity. The development of the Blended Web Mobile Learning model is supported by the latest learning theories and the empirical foundation of the latest research. The BWML model has five phases, namely: (1) Orientation based on IoTs and Big Data, (2) Investigation, (3) Analyzing, (4) Presenting, and (5) Evaluating, which each phase is carried out and supported by using the MoLearn application. The emphasis on BWML model implementation use percentage of 70% (on the job experience), 20% (mentoring and coaching), and 10% (classroom, course, and reading).

The development of learning innovation to enhance higher order thinking skills for students in Thailand junior high schools

“…Some research has pointed out that learning innovation has been developed to promote higher order thinking skills (e.g., critical thinking, problem solving, creative thinking and critical thinking) by applying theoretical principles into practice and combining with media features. There are the learning environments, skill sets, multimedia, online lessons and mobile learning ( Hong et al., 2000 ; Hwang et al., 2018 ; Ku and Ho, 2010 ; Lee et al., 2004 , 2021 ; Pedaste and Sarapuu, 2006 ; Perschbach, 2006 ; Prahani et al., 2020 ; Saido et al., 2018 ; Strycker, 2020 ; Torres and Cano, 1995 ; Uribe et al., 2003 ; Wang et al., 2009 ; Whittington, 2000 ). However, there is no educational institution promoting knowledge formation and higher order thinking skills based on the social and culture context, and the integration of local wisdom into courses to enable learners to learn and connect, then contribute to the sustainable creation of new knowledge.…”

Projects Management in Technology Start-ups for Mobile Software Development

“…Mobile software development is a highly intellectual job of creating a new product. Some authors [11,12,25] even describe it as inventing a new product with a learning process. Unlike standard production, where the product is of the same type, here a completely new product is formed.…”

The Development of Flipped Learning Model Based on MyBrilian to Support Planned Online Learning

“…This phase is supported by cognitive theory which explains that when students are with peers, changes in mental structures will occur, as a result of individual interactions with the environment (Prahani, et al, 2020). By sharing ideas with fellow students, it will increase students' understanding more quickly, as is known as distributed cognition learning (Moreno, 2010).…”

“…After understanding material, students need to present the results of their understanding and conclusions to friends and educators in the form of presentation. The purpose of this phase is to familiarize students with planning, preparing, and then presenting the results, so that students learn to sharpen their communication skills and critical thinking (Prahani, et al, 2020). This phase is carried out on a routine schedule determined by the institution.…”

“…Students must work on a problem solving, still online, by going through the Assignment menu in MyBrilian, where on the menu, the processing time can be set, so that students have the ability to set time for problem solving. Students' works which are based on literacy and problem solving can be used as learning evidence (Prahani, et al, 2020). Evaluation of the syntax of the learning model was carried out by measuring the success of the learning, and looking for data through the responses of students to the learning that has been done (Hwang & Lai, 2020).…”
