Emphasis on HOTS

The need for HOTS materials• Teachers are reluctant to integrate
various thinking strategies and skills in their classrooms (Rajendran, 1998).
• Lack of materials to teach HOTS (Rahil Mahyuddin et al., 2004)
• Materials available are not based on the Malaysian curriculum and context.
• Materials need to be modified extensively• Critical subjects: Bahasa Malaysia,
History, Geography, English

Creating the resources• Subjects chosen: Bahasa Malaysia, English and
History• Resources: Lesson plans, worksheets, teaching
materials• Verification of the resources (6 teachers and
90 students from a suburban secondary school in Perak, Malaysia)
• Feedback from teachers and students : lesson preparation, lesson implementation, teaching and learning activities, HOTS integration
• Modifications on the resources

Creating the website• Host: Sultan Idris Education University• Url: http://oerthinking.upsi.edu.my/• Content management system: Joomla!
Version 1.7• Research team members attended OER
workshops (f2f and online) and Joomla! workshops.
• Challenges: i) access from 8am to 5pm onlyii) access within campus vicinity only

Response from teachers and students
• Positive attitudes from the teachers and students
• Teachers have limited knowledge to revise the resources-follow the resources strictly
• HOTS elements: aligned with the syllabus, more elements can be included

Sustainability
• Teachers from the schools are invited to use, revise and submit the resources.
• Resources will be reviewed before made available for public viewing
• OER is promoted in SIEU through sharing and contribution of resources from trainee teachers.

Conclusion• Beneficial to schools with limited
access to quality teaching and learning materials related to HOTS.
• Second phase: develop resources on other core subjects taught in Malaysian classrooms.
