Validitas Soal Higher-Order Thinking Skill Matematika Berkonteks Kebencanaan untuk Siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama

Abstract

Disaster mitigation efforts in learning mathematics need to be done to foster a disaster awareness attitude in students through higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) questions in mathematics with a disaster context. One effort that can be done is to design mathematics problems in a disaster context. This study aimed to obtain valid HOTS mathematics questions in the disaster context for junior high school students. This research is development research that is limited to the self-evaluation and expert review stages only. This study obtained 16 HOTS questions in mathematics with disaster context for junior high school students, which were valid both in terms of content and construct. The disaster context used includes drought, tsunami, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, climate change, landslides, forest fires, and floods. The implication of this research is that valid questions can be used by teachers in the teaching and learning process in the classroom.

Readability of Higher-order Thinking (HOT) Mathematical Problems in Disaster Context for Junior High School Students

“…This research is development research [16] which consists of self-evaluation, expert review, one-to-one, small group, and field test. Because this study aims to determine the readability of HOT math problems in a disaster context and is a follow-up study from [11], the researchers carried out the one-to-one and small group stages only. The one-to-one stage involves three students with high, medium, and low abilities.…”

“…HOT problems can be enriched by integrating various contexts, including disaster contexts. The HOT math problem in disaster context is a problem that can measure high-level thinking skills and contains disaster problems [11]. Students' higher-order thinking skills can be measured, including through solving HOT math problems in the context of a disaster.…”

“…Previous research has attempted to develop problems with HOT characteristics and accommodate disaster contexts which resulted in 16 HOT math problems in a disaster context for junior high school students that meet theoretical validity [11]. However, the problems developed have not gone through the readability test stage by students as users.…”
