Enhancing Vocational High School Students ‘Higher Order Thinking Skills’ through E-Module of Bar Force Analysis in Simple Frame Constructions

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This study aims to enhance vocational high school students’ higher order thinking skills (HOTS) in bar force analysis of simple frame constructions through the use of an e-module. A quasi experimental design was applied with two groups: an experimental group using the e-module and a control group using presentation-based media. Data were analyzed with ANCOVA to control for students’ initial ability levels. The results show a statistically significant difference between the two groups (Fhit = 8.463 > Ftable = 3.99; p = 0.005), with the experimental group obtaining higher HOTS scores. The findings indicate that the e-module is effective in strengthening vocational literacy and improving students’ HOTS in engineering mechanics, demonstrating potential for sustainable use as an interactive, project based instructional resource.
