Higher Order Thinking Skills Based Learning Outcomes Improvement with Blended Web Mobile Learning Model

Abstract

The objective of this research is to analyze the effectiveness of the blended web mobile learning model in improving Higher Order Thinking Skills-based learning outcomes of high school students. This research is a quasi-experiment design. The research sample was 137 students from 2 senior high schools in East Java Province - Indonesia. Before implementing the BWML model using MoLearn, both groups of students were tested (pre-test) and after the learning was complete, students were again given the same test (post-test). The collected data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test; calculation of n-gain; and the Mann-Whitney U test. The results shows that biology learning using the BWML Model is effective in improving student learning outcomes as indicated by: (1) an increase in student learning outcomes which is statistically significant at =5%, (2) the average of n-gain is in the medium category, and (3) the mean of n-gain has no difference in the two groups of students.
