“…Problem-solving skills must be supported by a cognitive system that controls focus and interference in information processing (Mairing, 2017). Any obstacle at the cognitive level can create difficulties in the problem-solving process (Pacheco & Herrera, 2021).…”

21st century learning focuses on problem-solving skills. A higher level of education requires an understanding of a more systematic concept to elaborate problems. Problem-solving skill is one of the fundamental cognitive processes. It involves higher order thinking to discover solutions or ideas. This research aims to analyze the relationship between concept mastery and problem-solving skill of pre-service biology teacher in human physiology courses. This is descriptive correlational research conducted in Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin State Islamic University Jambi. The sample was selected using the purposive sampling technique. Respondents in this study were 33 students in semester VI. The instrument used in the study was an essay test of concept mastery integrated with problem-solving. The results showed that the average scores of the students' concept mastery and problem-solving were 56.8 and 58.0, respectively. Both included in the poor category. It also showed that there was a relationship between students' concept mastery and problem-solving skill. The correlation value was 0.76, with a significance value of p0.05; therefore, it included in the strong category.

“…For future studies, we recommend including an analysis of these two skills and integrating them with specific items. Secondly, the validity process would have been improved by joining it with analysis of other processes, such as concurrent validity with other similar instruments [93], predictive validity, and test-rest stability [94]. These studies were not carried out since this research was part of another research in university students.…”

Thinking skills are essential to achieve sustainable social development. Nonetheless, there is no specific instrument that assesses all of these skills as a whole. The present study aimed to design and validate a scale to assess complex thinking skills in adult people. A scale of 22 items assessing the following aspects: analysis and problem solving, critical analysis, metacognition, systemic analysis, and creativity, in five levels, was created. This scale was validated in 626 university students from Peru. In total, 16 experts in the field helped to determine the content validity of the scale (Aiken’s V value higher than 0.8). The confirmatory factor analysis allowed the evaluation of the structure of the five factors theoretically proposed and the goodness of fit indexes was satisfactory. An item was eliminated during the process and the scale resulted in 21 items. The composite reliability for the different factors was ranged between 0.794 and 0.867. The invariance between genders was also checked and the concurrent validity was proved. The study concludes that the content validity, construct validity, concurrent validity, and composite reliability levels of the COMPLEX-21 scale are appropriate.

“…Analisando a figura 1, observa-se duas possibilidades de obter informac ¸ões sobre o perfil do estudante: através de cadastro em fomulário inicial ou; através da interac ¸ão do estudante com atividades pré-definidas. Apesar destas duas possibilidades para o que se conhece por partida a frio (Cold start), a primeira proposta envolve valer-se da caracterizac ¸ão do estudante através de três processos cognitivos (metacognic ¸ão, pensamento crítico e pensamento criativo), pois existem formulários disponíveis para tal [Pacheco and Herrera 2021]. É importante destacar que, estes processos cognitivos auxiliam na formac ¸ão do pensamento computacional, conforme apresentado por apresentado por [Golinkoff and Hirsh-Pasek 2016].…”

Identificar habilidades de estudantes em ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem (AVA) é um tema relevante na área de Informática na Educação. Neste artigo mapeamos habilidades cognitivas, considerando aquelas da teoria do sujeito complexo aderente ao contexto educacional, visando identificá-las em atividades do Moodle. Tal mapeamento considerou as descrições das características do sujeito complexo (CSC), os objetivos educacionais de cada atividade e as ações pedagógicas que possam promover as habilidades supracitadas. Este mapeamento poderá ser utilizado para guiar o processo de aprendizagem no AVA, utilizando atividades pedagógicas que estimulem as habilidades cognitivas de alta ordem, favorecendo o desenvolvimento do pensamento computacional.
