Editor's Notes

  1. Intro: Pelan Pembangunan Pendidikan Malaysia (PPPM) 2013-2025 telah menilai prestasi semasa sistem pendidikan negara dengan mengambil kira pencapaian lampau dan membandingkan dengan tanda aras antarabangsa. PPPM 2013-2025 bagi melahirkan rakyat yang menghayati nilai murni, kementerian telah mengukuhkan Pendidikan Agama Islam dan Pendidikan Moral dengan lebih tumpuan kepada memupuk nilai-nilai murni dan agama serta persefahaman lebih erat antara murid. Hamka menjelaskan, anak adalah untuk zaman yang akan datang, bukan untuk zaman kita. Salahlah pendidikan orang tua yang hendak menjadikan anak mereka seperti mereka juga.
  2. Considerations:
  3. HOTs-LOTs
  4. HOTs-LOTs Time The cultivation of HOT is an internal process which develops over time. It is a time-consuming effort where students need to reflect, to articulate, to justify, to interact with, to discuss, to question, etc., all in one time frame. Hence, due to the tight schedule for each subject, teachers may have difficulties planning HOT-filled lessons to be completed in 1 or 2 class periods (Limbach & Waugh, n.d.; Sparapani, 1998). Student factor Attitude Some students (even the good ones) have the mentality of taking the easy way out. Motivation they do not see the necessity to go through the hassle if there are easier ways to complete their tasks in/out of the classroom (Sparapani, 1998). In other words, they do not like and have no motivation to think. For them, it will be easier and faster to be given a direct answer instead of being asked to think out of the box and to provide rationales afterwards. Teacher factor Competence Teachers themselves are confused over the definitions of thinking skills (Beyer, 1984) and they sometimes find it difficult to differentiate levels in thinking (Marzano, 1993; Rajendran, 2000). This lack of knowledge of HOT may eventually lead to teachers’ inability to assess students’ HOT. Teachers are not always sure of how to teach HOT (Rajendran, 2001; Sparapani, 1998). Yildirim (1994) discovered that the majority of teachershad only adequate skills to promote HOT (Supon, n.d.). Also, it was foundthat “in-service and pre-service teachers’ initial knowledge of thinking strategies was often not sound enough for purposes of instruction” (Zohar, 2013, p. 235). To conclude, teachers lack the appropriate pedagogical knowledge to teach HOT (Fisher, 1999; Zohar, 1999; Zohar & Schwartzer,2005). As teachers are confused themselves, they sometimes thought that they are teaching HOT when in reality they could be just inducing lower-order thinking among their students (Rajendran, 2002; Sparapani, 1998). On the contrary, some teachers may be unaware that they have been unconsciously integrating HOT in their instruction all this while (Zohar, 1999). Teachers see it easier to “prepare simplistic lessons that let the textbook do the teaching” (Sparapani, 1998, p. 274); the integration of HOT into the curriculum is being compromised (Zohar & Schwartzer, 2005). Some teachers rely solely on Bloom’s taxonomy without realizing that the taxonomy is not prescribed specifically for the teaching of HOT (Ivie, 1998). Perception Teachers have expressed that Mathematics and Science teachers are most probably better oriented to teach HOT (Hashim, 2003). Teachers are still clinging on to the thought that HOT is only meant for high-performing students (Hashim, 2003; Lundquist & Hill, 2009; Zohar et al., 2001; Zohar & Dori, 2003; Zohar & Schwartzer, 2005). To them, weak students have very little thinking capacity, and their thinking ability is -mostly hindered by their low language proficiency (Lundquist & Hill, 2009). Language teachers generally have more confidence in teaching language arts than teaching HOT (Rajendran, 2001). Assessment Standardized tests (teach-to-test syndrome) Teachers are bound with the issues of accountability in providing quantifiable achievement scores; as a result they have to stick to “normal” classroom practices to fulfil examination requirements (Sparapani, 1998). “Standardized tests (national and international) inhibit and contradict the development of HOT” (Zohar, 2013, p. 239). Any changes made to the curriculum (e.g., Integration of HOT) but not to the assessment practices will result in naught. Assessments should be geared toward appreciating and meriting HOT ability instead of recognizing only content mastery. It has become a norm that content goals are prioritized over thinking goals (Zohar, 2013). To this effect, in Malaysia especially, the dominance of standardized examinations in the education system is clearly exhibited (Ali, 2003; Che Musa, Koo, & Azman, 2012; Michael, 2012). Teachers’ use of alternative assessments to evaluate HOT is usually hindered by the rigid guidelines provided by the authorities. The inflexibility of mainstream assessments has been and will always be a constraint to teaching HOT effectively. Learning environment An example is the traditional way of desk arrangement has been maintained up to this day, especially in Malaysian classrooms. Students usually sit in pairs in rows facing the teacher and the whiteboard at the front. Such seating is neat and formal-like for the teaching and learning process, however it bars HOT. If classrooms are to be platforms for lively exchanges of intellect, teachers have to provide a stimulating atmosphere which encourages deep thinking (Sparapani, 1998). The culture of learning has greatly been inherited from drill-and-practice and rote learning (Sparapani, 1998). Teachers need to provide scaffolding for transition from this type of passive learning to active learning (HOTs). It has been claimed that critical thinking is a form of western culture and that Asian students are unable to think critically because such practice is alien especially in Asian educational contexts and culture (Abdul Rashid & Awang Hashim, 2008). Resources Support in resources to ensure an engaging learning process among the teacher and the students is lacking. Practising HOT with students in class is intense and could always throw the teacher’s pre-planned lesson out the window (still a well-thought out lesson plan is indispensible), thus having a variety of resources (e.g., computers, reference books, newspapers, etc.) is a must to cater to the on-going intellectual interaction in the classroom (Sparapani, 1998). Resources to develop teachers’ professional knowledge of HOT and pedagogical knowledge to teach HOT effectively need vast improvement (Zohar, 2013).
