Abstract

Increased thinking at a high level is needed so that students are able to solve the problems faced in their lives based on Islamic values. This study aims to analyze the improvement of higher order thinking skills based on Islamic values on the application of green chemistry-based synthetic polymer e-modules. The research design used was a one-group pretest and posttest with research subjects that were 26 semester VI students of the Chemistry Education Study Program. The results of this study indicate that the application of synthetic chemistry based on green chemistry e-module can improve the ability of high-level thinking based on Islamic values based on the average gain of n-gain 0.647 which is included in the medium category. Learning using this e-module can improve learning outcomes by making learning situations more active so as to better understand the concept of synthetic polymers based on green chemistry. Thus, the application of synthetic chemistry based on green chemistry e-module can improve the ability to think at a high level.
