Student Development Zone: Higher Order Thinking Skills (Hots) in Critical Thinking Orientation

Abstract

Education is an important thing for humans to need because it functions to prepare human resources in the nation's development process. There are several characteristics in formal education, namely: having a clear curriculum, applying certain conditions for students and teaching staff must meet certain classifications. A person's ability to achieve success in life is determined by how much his ability to think in facing and solving life's problems. Someone who has the ability to think critically will always evaluate an activity to conclude everything that is factual. This research uses qualitative methods and literature study approaches. The results of the study describe: 1. Educational Zones: Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS); 2. Student Zone: Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in the Orientation of Increasing Critical Thinking; 3. Higher Education Zone: Reflections on Critical Thinking. The conclusion obtained is that HOTS is said to be good because it can find problems, solve problems and in the process of problem solving involves thinking processes of analyzing, evaluating, creating. This is because in the learning process students are actively involved to search for and find various concepts of knowledge so that it will increase creativity, innovation ability and critical thinking processes of students in solving a problem. If this continues to be honed, we will be able to compete in the 4.0 industrial revolution era.

Advancement of STEM-Based Digital Module to Enhance HOTS of Prospective Elementary School Teachers

“…Based on the data, it can be concluded that the STEM-based digital module produced is both valid and feasible to use, and that it effectively raises the HOTS of future elementary school teachers. In the era of the 4.0 industrial revolution, HOTS is a critical skill (Arbia et al, 2020;Jaenudin et al, 2020). This is due to the fact that HOTS makes it easier for people to solve difficult problems and make wise decisions.…”

Improving Student’s Critical Thinking Skill in Mathematics Through Geogebra-Based Flipped Learning During Pandemi Covid-19: an Experimental Study

“…Tes diberikan pada tahap pretest dan posttest dimana terdiri dari dua buah soal uraian berbasis Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) yang diberikan pada tahap pretest dan posttest. Hal ini dikarenakan berbasis penelitian terdahulu, soal berbasis HOTS dapat digunakan untuk mengukur tingkat kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa (Akatsuka, 2019;Feriyanto & Putri, 2020;Jaenudin et al, 2020).…”

Model Pembelajaran RADEC sebagai Alternatif dalam Meningkatkan Higher Order Thinking Skill pada Pembelajaran IPA di Sekolah Dasar: Systematic Review

“…Salah satu dampak diterapkannya HOTS adalah memaksimalkan kinerja dan mengurangi kelemahan. Hal ini dapat diistilahkan dengan siswa yang dilatih untuk berpikir secara HOTS akan berpengaruh terhadap kemampuan, kecepatan, dan efisiensi dalam pengambilan sebuah keputusan (Heong et al, 2011;Jaenudin, Chotimah, Farida, & Syarifuddin, 2020;Rahayu, Sopandi, Anggaeni, Tursinawati, & Septinaningrum, 2021). Namun demikian, berdasarkan fakta yang ditemukan di lapangan menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan HOTS pada siswa pada dalam taraf rendah.…”
