Abstract

This research is based on the need to increase student’s higher-order thinking skills in the face of competition in the 21st century. The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of Higher Order Thinking Laboratory (HOT Lab) to increase student’s critical thinking skills on the topic of elasticity. The pre experiment method with one group pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The research subject was the student of Physics Education Program UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. The sample was 69 students consisting of 23 males and 46 females. Research instruments are essay tests for measuring critical thinking skills. The results showed that there was a HOT Lab impact in increasing critical thinking skills of students with the normalized gain average including high category. There was no gender influence in terms of improving student’s critical thinking skills. The improvement of critical thinking skill was caused by HOT-Lab characterized by problem-solving and higher order thinking oriented through real laboratory activities in learning. The implications of HOT-Lab can be used to improve other high-level thinking skills and can be applied to other physics learning topics.
