The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation between Accounting teachers’ use of various teaching methods with achievement and high order thinking skills (HOTS) of Principles of Accounting students. Samples are formed four students from schools in the Batang Padang district in Perak, Malaysia. The objectives of the study are to determine the level of practice of teaching methods, student achievement, and HOTS, the difference of the variables based on gender and quantitative skills and the correlation between teacher teaching methods and student achievement and HOTS. The practice of teaching methods is divided into three constructs namely teaching activities, teaching aids, and teaching and facilitating. The findings show that the mean level of teaching activities is 3.79 (high), teaching aids 4.41 (high) and teaching and facilitating 3.57 (moderate). The overall level of students' achievement is 57.26% at a moderate level. The mean of low-level thinking skills is 5.49, medium-level 32.97 and high-level 13.31. Based on gender, students’ achievement and HOTS differ significantly with male students showing higher scores. Based on the students' quantitative skills, teaching and facilitating, low-level thinking skills and high-level thinking skills show significant differences. The Pearson correlation test between teaching aids and low-level thinking skills showed a significant positive relationship (r = 0.260, p <0.05). Based on the findings, grouping activities such as cooperative learning and systematic practice modules are expected to enhance Accounting students’ mastery and HOTS. The use of game-based learning and interactive teaching methods will have a better impact on students’ learning considering their high interest in such activities. Adequate infra and info structures and tools that facilitate the use of ICT in teaching and facilitating should be made available. Teachers should also ensure variability in teaching activities and teaching aids to enhance students’ motivation and performance.

With the rapid development of high-speed railways, any objects intruding railway clearance will do great threat to railway operations. Accurate and effective intrusion detection is very important. An original Single Shot multibox Detector (SSD) can be used to detect intruding objects except small ones. In this paper, high-level features are deconvolved to low-level and fused with original low-level features to enhance their semantic information. By this way, the mean average precision (mAP) of the improved SSD algorithm is increased. In order to decrease the parameters of the improved SSD network, the L1 norm of convolution kernel is used to prune the network. Under this criterion, both the model size and calculation load are greatly reduced within the permitted precision loss. Experiments show that the mAP of our method on PASCAL VOC public dataset and our railway datasets have increased by 2.52% and 4.74% respectively, when compared to the original SSD. With our method, the elapsed time of each frame is only 31 ms on GeForce GTX1060.

This article, which uses library data and direct and indirect observations, proves that global abilities and higher-order thinking are part of the Islamic tradition. The sources of Islamic teachings, the Qur'an, Al-Hadith, and the history of the journey of Muslims in the golden age of the 7th to 13th centuries AD, have encouraged and given birth to a tradition of having global competence and high- thinking skills level. The background, characteristics, scope, steps, and examples of the practice of global abilities and higher thinking from an Islamic perspective can be proven in this paper.

This research is an experimental study through elaborates the Active Knowledge Sharing (AKS) learning model to improve students' High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). The low ability of students to analyze, evaluate, and create is due to the lack of application of questions that deliver students to solve problems that contain HOTS. The four stages in the AKS will serve as a reference for students’ HOTS integrated 4Cs. The sample was a student in Chemical Engineering at the State Polytechnic of Ujung Pandang. The increase in the average aspects of HOTS (analysis, evaluation, and create) in the experimental class (N-gain = 94%) higher than the control class (N-gain = 57%). In the experimental class, the average score for HOTS of students was 37.7 and there was an increase in the average score in the posttest final measurement of 96.5 or an increase of 59 points with the average high-level thinking ability of students in the very good category. This indicates that the AKS learning model is effective in increasing the ability of HOTS as well as having an impact on students' 4Cs abilities.

The 2013 curriculum encourages learners to have high-level high-level thinking skills high order thinking skills (HOTS). This requires teaching materials that are in line with the demands of the 2013 Curriculum such as Student Worksheets (LKPD). To develop LKPD in accordance with the demands of the 2013 Curriculum, it is necessary to analyze the needs of students about the LKPD. The purpose of this study was to see the needs of students' analysis of HOTS-based LKPD to hone higher order thinking skills so that students could think critically and creatively. This type of research is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. The sampling technique was observation, interviews and questionnaires to students of SMPN 3 and SMPN 23 Padang. The results showed that the teaching materials available at SMPN 3 Padang and SMPN 23 Padang already used the 2013 Curriculum, but the LKPD used was only made by the Subject Teacher Conference. The LKPD made by the MGMP does not require students to analyze, evaluate and create which are indicators of HOTS. From the analysis of the curriculum, the two schools have implemented the 2013 curriculum, but in its implementate it has not emphasized a student-centered learning process. Based on the interview with the teacher, it was found that the problem in the learning process was that students were not used to higher-order thinking and there was no teaching material that specifically required students to improve higher-order thinking. Thus, the development of HOTS-based LKPD is very much needed.

Background. Critical thinking is one of the most important missions of the educational planning system of medical sciences universities around the world. Hence, identifying the level of critical thinking skills and tendency of medical sciences students to think critically is of great importance. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to examine the critical thinking level in medical sciences students in Iran. Methods. To extract published studies in the field of critical thinking in Iran, a search was conducted in the databases of PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, ERIC, and Magiran. The keywords of critical thinking, medical sciences, and Iran were used for the purpose of the search in the two languages of Persian and English and without any time limit. The PRISMA flow diagram was applied for the selection of articles, and the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale was used for the evaluation of these papers. Results. After evaluating the quality of searched articles, 80 articles were finally selected for the final analysis. The total sample of the articles included 12,578 students. The results indicated that out of 51 articles conducted in the field of critical thinking skills, 48 articles reported these skills at a low level, 2 papers at a medium level, and only 1 paper at a high level in the medical sciences students. Among 29 articles in the field of the level of critical thinking disposition, 13 articles reported their tendency level at a low level, 11 articles at a medium level, and 5 articles at a high level. Conclusion. In general, based on most articles, the level of critical thinking skills in the medical sciences students in Iran was reported to be at a low level and their tendency to critical thinking at a moderate level and low level. Therefore, given the importance of critical thinking for medical sciences students, future studies should consider factors influencing the increase of the critical thinking level in these students. In this regard, formation of some training workshops can also be promising. Furthermore, reviewing the medical sciences curriculum should be taken into consideration by the policymakers and educational planners so as to strengthen the level of critical thinking in the medical sciences students.
