Abstract:
The level of thinking ability of students in Indonesia is very low, especially in social studies (Social Sciences) learning. This can be seen from students' ability to carry out investigations, understand theory, analyze, and solve problems. This is certainly a problem, especially in the era of the independent curriculum and the 21st -century. This research aims to examine more deeply the influence of HOTS on social studies learning in secondary schools in the 21st-century era. This type of research is descriptive research using qualitative research which produces descriptive data in the form of written or spoken words that can be observed. The research results show that in social studies learning in secondary schools, the role of HOTS as a high-level thinking skill is important and main to meet the learning needs of the 21st century in building an intelligent and creative generation. 21st-century skills are divided into four or what we know as 4C (Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, Creative Thinking and Innovation, Collaboration, Communication). Critical thinking skills can be implemented with HOTS (High Order Thinking Skill) based learning. High-level thinking skills (HOTS) as critical and creative thinking play an important role in preparing students to become good problem solvers and able to make mature decisions and conclusions that can be held accountable academically.
