Learning innovation by teacher of physical education based on higher order thinking skills during the covid-19 pandemic

Abstract

The 2013 curriculum mandates primary and secondary education institutions to apply Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in learning. The HOTS learning method consists of transfer of knowledge, critical and creative thinking, and problem solving. Teachers of Physical Education, Sports and Health (PJOK) have attempted to implement this method. Currently, the implementation of HOTS is faced with obstacles to online learning due to the Covid-19 pandemic. PJOK teachers are required to prioritize learning that includes students' affective, cognitive and psychomotor aspects. Therefore, PJOK teachers are required to be able to innovate in delivering learning, one of which is using information technology. However, there are various other innovations used by PJOK teachers to implement the HOTS approach to students. This paper seeks to describe PJOK learning innovations for junior high school students while still implementing the HOTS approach during the Covid-19 pandemic in junior high schools in Kulon Progo Regency. The poll research method was used to collect and process data. Respondents in this study were PJOK teachers in Kulon Progo Regency. Data collection techniques using online questionnaires and literature studies. Data were analyzed using the concept of learning innovation and the HOTS approach
