Abstract

This research aimed at describing students’ higher order thinking skills in solving the problem of generator function. Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in this research consisted of logic and reasoning, analysis, evaluation, and creation skills. This research was a descriptive research by using qualitative approach. Meanwhile, the research subject was three students of mathematics education department of Hasyim Asy’ari University,one student with high ability, one student with medium ability, and one student with low ability.The data collecting method used was test, scoring rubric, and interview. Then, the data validation technique used was tie triangulation. To analyze the data, the researcher used Miles and Huberman concepts consisting of data reduction, data interpretation, and conclusion making. The conclusion of this research shows that one student do the skills of logic and reasoning, analysis, evaluation, and creation not very well in solving the problem of generator function, so that, they are included in the medium level of high order thinking skills. Next, two students cannot do the skills of logic and reasoning, analysis, evaluation, and creation well in solving the problem of generator function, so that, they are included in the low level of high order thinking skills.
