Abstract

The learning process during the covid-19 epidemic was not efficient, resulting in low higher-order thinking skills in elementary school students, which prompted this study. The purpose of this study was to improve the higher-order thinking skills of elementary school students using the social reconstruction model for learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study was a type of classroom action research, which includes planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting stages. This study took place in a public school in Bukittinggi involving 35 students in grade 5 elementary school. This study found that in the first cycle, the higher-order thinking skill of elementary school students got an average score of 65.45, and in the second cycle, the average score was 81.25. This result showed that during the COVID-19 epidemic, elementary students who used the social reconstruction model for learning improved their higher-order thinking skills. The findings of this study can be utilized as a guide to help elementary school students improve their high-order thinking skills during the COVID-19 epidemic.
