The Application of Higher Order Thinking Skills Elements in Malay Language Standard Six Textbook

Abstract

Pengaplikasian elemen kemahiran berfikir aras tinggi (KBAT) dalam Buku Teks Bahasa Melayu Tahun Enam (KSSR) (2015) selaras dengan kehendak Dokumen Standard Kurikulum dan Pentaksiran Bahasa Melayu Sekolah Rendah. Namun, kajian lalu mendapati penerapan elemen ini masih belum dilaksanakan sepenuhnya. Justeru, objektif kajian ini ialah mengkaji tahap penerapan elemen KBAT dalam semua arahan aktiviti pembelajaran Buku Teks Bahasa Melayu Tahun Enam (KSSR) berdasarkan jenis kemahiran bahasa, jenis kemahiran KBAT, dan Unit Pelajaran. Buku Teks Bahasa Melayu Tahun Enam (KSSR) (2015) terbitan Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka digunakan sebagai sampel kajian. Data dikumpul menggunakan senarai semak ciri-ciri elemen KBAT dan senarai semak arahan aktiviti pembelajaran. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis, dirumus dan dibandingkan antara setiap kemahiran bahasa dan jenis KBAT. Dapatan kajian mendapati bahawa hanya 29.70% elemen KBAT diaplikasikan dalam Buku Teks Bahasa Melayu (KSSR) berbanding dengan penerapan elemen KBAR. Dapatan juga mendapati bahawa 51% elemen KBAT diterapkan dalam kemahiran menulis berbanding dengan kemahiran membaca dan bertutur. Dapatan turut menunjukkan bahawa elemen mencipta diterap lebih kerap (73.47%) berbanding dengan elemen KBAT yang lain. Dapatan kajian juga menyerlahkan bahawa elemen mencipta lebih banyak diaplikasi dalam kemahiran menulis berbanding dengan kemahiran bahasa yang lain. Secara keseluruhannya, Buku Teks Bahasa Melayu KSSR (2015) masih belum mencapai piawaian penerapan elemen KBAT yang secara menyeluruh dan seimbang.
