Description

The article describes the scientific approach mandated in the 2013 Indonesian curriculum as comprising "observing, questioning, experimenting, associating, and communicating", each with indicators such as reading and listening for observing, asking and clarifying for questioning, trying and collecting data for experimenting, processing and analyzing information for associating, and compiling reports for communicating. It served as the control condition against which the problem solving strategy was compared for HOTS outcomes.
