Development of a Guide to Preparation of Mathematics Questions Based on Higher Order Thinking Skills and Strengthening Character Education for Middle School Teachers

Abstract

The objectives of public devotion based on nationally excelled research this covers: (1) to develop a mathematical problem composing guide based on HOTS and SCE for qualified Madrasah Tsanawiyah teachers, (2) to provide training a mathematical problem composing based on HOTS and SCE for qualified Madrasah Tsanawiyah teachers using the developed guide. This study uses a 4-D (Four D) development research design model according to Thiagarajan, et al (1974: 5). This research model includes 4 main stages, namely the defining stage, followed by the design stage, then towards the development stage, and finally the distribution phase. The research instruments included: (a) the scale of the assessment of the quality of mathematical composing guide based on HOTS and SCE for Madrasah Tsanawiyah teachers, (b) scale of appraisal user response for guidebook, and (c) the Pre Test and Post Test Problem Sheets. The results of the study concluded that the guidebook for mathematical problem composing for SMP / MTs based on HOTS and SCE met the specified quality criteria, which were at least in the good category. In this study, the developed guidebook obtained an evaluation in the excellent category. However, testing to determine the level of practicality has not been done.

Exploring Students’ LOTS and HOTS in Answering Reading Questions

“…Teachers incorporating higher-order thinking skills in teaching and learning will provide students with experience, especially higher-order thinking skills. The findings of previous studies also state that students' higher-order thinking skills can be trained by teachers (Hassan et al, 2016;Ibrahim et al, 2020;Seibert, 2021). Other findings also state that effective learning activities can improve students' higher-order thinking skills (Sari et al, 2020;Suherman et al, 2020;Suratmi et al, 2020).…”

“…P-ISSN: 2614-3909 E-ISSN: 2614-3895 yang rendah, siswa mungkin memiliki ketidakmampuan belajar dan mengganggu hasil belajar mereka. Kesulitan belajar di sekolah dasar terjadi karena matematika merupakan mata pelajaran yang kompleks dan dipandang menyerampkan dan menakutkan (Codreanu et al, 2020;Ibrahim et al, 2020). Matematika seharusnya membantu melatih pemikiran siswa untuk dapat memecahkan masalah baik dalam matematika maupun kehidupan sehari-hari.…”

Aktivitas Pembelajaran Berbantuan Media Pembelajaran Wizer.Me Meningkatkan Literasi Numerasi dan Kemampuan Metakogntif pada Materi Bilangan Bulat

“…Namun masalah yang terjadi saat ini yaitu kemampuan literasi numerasi dan kemampuan metakognitif siswa masih rendah. Temuan penelitian sebelumnya juga menyatakan bahwa kemampuan literasi numerasi Siswa masih sangat rendah karena siswa masih kesulitan dalam belajar (Adiyasa et al, 2019;Ibrahim et al, 2020). Penelitian lain juga menyatakan bahwa masih kurangnya kemampuan metakognitif siswa karena proses pembelajaran kurang inovatif yang menyebabkan siswa merasa bosan dalam belajar (Pramono, 2017;Widyantari et al, 2019).…”
