Analisis Pengaruh Penggunaan ChatGPT Terhadap Peningkatan Kemampuan HOTS Siswa di Era Merdeka Belajar
Keywords:
ChatGPT; higher order thinking skills; critical thinking; creative thinking; Merdeka Belajar.Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of ChatGPT utilization on improving students’ Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), particularly in the aspects of analysis, evaluation, and creation. The research employed a quasi-experimental design involving two groups: an experimental group that integrated ChatGPT into the learning process and a control group that followed conventional instruction. Data were collected through HOTS pre-test and post-test assessments, as well as questionnaires measuring students’ perceptions of ChatGPT usage. The results indicate a significant improvement in HOTS among students in the experimental group, with an average increase of 20.6%, compared to a 5.2% improvement in the control group. Linear regression analysis reveals that ChatGPT usage contributes 27% to the enhancement of students’ HOTS. Furthermore, the majority of students reported that ChatGPT supported them in developing critical and creative thinking skills. These findings suggest that ChatGPT is an effective instructional tool for fostering higher-order thinking skills and aligns with the principles of Merdeka Belajar, which emphasize flexible, technology-based learning and the development of advanced cognitive competencies
