Teaching mathematics as a STEM subject in this 21<sup>st</sup> century must be challenging enough to inspire learning, especially in the basic schools. This also depends on the pedagogical content knowledge and skills of the teachers handling the subject. Therefore, there is a need to design modern instructional strategies for training future teachers handling the pupils at the primary schools. Flipped classroom approach is one of the emerging pedagogical strategies that has proven to be very efficacious in teaching almost all subjects. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the impact of flipped classrooms as a pedagogy in equipping the pre-service teachers with the knowledge and concepts of plane geometry, which happens to be one of the main branches of mathematics. A sample of 101 basic school pre-service teachers was purposively sampled for the study. A pre- and post-test design were used to gather quantitative data for analysis using a quasi-experimental approach. Based on the analysis of the results, the null hypothesis was rejected since there was a statistically significant difference in the pre-service teachers’ performance before and after the intervention. The study concluded that there was an improvement in performance due to the intervention. Therefore, the researcher recommends the flipped classroom approach as a formidable pedagogy for teaching pre-service teachers.

“…These categories studied about learning models and instruments were designed for the improvement of HOTS mathematics students. Learning models are classified as active learning, including cooperative learning, discovery learning [23], problem-based learning [24], problem-solving [25], and other constructivism-based learningrealistic mathematics education, contextual teaching learning, and open-ended approaches [26]. The research also includes the implementation of learning tools [27], open problem assessment [28], and student activity sheets [29].…”

HOTS instruction in mathematics is rarely explicitly programmed by the schoolteacher. As a result, students' HOTS is at the lowest level, especially in national or international assessments. The purpose of this research is to determine why mathematics education in Indonesia does not have a significant effect on student HOTS by conducting a review of several Indonesian publications on the subject. This research is a qualitative method of literature review related to the HOTS of Indonesian mathematics students, and an organized interview triangulated to support the data and information from the literature review. The interview consisted of two critical questions administered using Google Form: implementing active learning and mathematics textbooks on mathematics classroom activities. The results concluded that there were two primary sources of error in mathematics learning to increase HOTS in Indonesia: active learning and current mathematics textbooks. Besides, in teaching and learning practices, the active learning model is rarely used when using official texts that do not promote HOTS for mathematics students in Indonesia.

“…Hasil tersebut mengungkapkan bahwa modul pembelajaran berbasis konstruktivisme menekankan peserta didik sebagai peran utama dalam proses pembelajaran untuk belajar secara mandiri dengan membangun pengetahuan berdasarkan pengalamannya masing-masing. Pembelajaran dengan modul berbasis konstruktivisme dapat meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi peserta didik secara signifikan (Minarni & Napitupulu, 2020). Pendekatan berbasis konstruktivisme juga membantu peserta didik mencapai pembelajaran bermakna dalam konsep sains (Samaresh, 2017).…”

Critical thinking skill plays an important role in achieving maximum learning outcomes. The lack of involvement in critical thinking skills activities impacts students’ learning outcomes. This study aims to analyze whether the ICARE learning model application combined with constructivism-based learning modules can improve students' critical thinking skills and learning outcomes. The research method is an experiment with a pretest-posttest control group design. This study was conducted in MAN 4 Aceh Selatan and MAS Ashhabul Yamin Aceh Selatan during the even semester (2020/2021 Academic Year) with the population of 196 students of science class XI. The research sample was 119 students, namely the experimental group 58 and the control group 60. The parameters measured are critical thinking skills and learning outcomes. Data on critical thinking skills and learning outcomes were analyzed by parametric statistics using an independent sample t test, while to observe the correlation of critical thinking skills with learning outcomes was conducted through correlation and regression analysis. The results showed that there was an increase in critical thinking skills and student learning outcomes after being taught using the application of the ICARE learning model combined with constructivism-based learning modules on the respiratory system material. The correlation coefficient obtained is 0.832 which indicates there is a positive relationship between critical thinking skills and learning outcomes with strong interpretations. The conclusion of this study is that the application of the ICARE learning model combined with constructivism-based learning modules can improve students’ critical thinking skills and learning outcomes on respiratory system material. Keywords: ICARE, Constructivism, Critical Thinking Skill, Learning Outcomes.
