Abstract

This research aims to analyze the higher-order mathematical thinking skills of gifted students before, during, and after being given challenging mathematical tasks. This research was conducted at a State Madrasah Tsanawiah in Depok City. This study used a single-subject research design (A-B-A). The subjects of this study were three students who were included in the gifted student category. The research instrument used was a test. The results of this study revealed that the highest-order mathematical thinking skills of all subjects were obtained during the intervention condition (B). The higher-order mathematical thinking skills of gifted 1 and 3 students at baseline 2 (A2) were higher than baseline 1 (A1), while higher-order mathematical thinking skills of gifted 2 students at baseline 2 (A2) were lower than baseline 1 (A1). In general, the conclusion of this study is that the giving of challenging mathematical tasks consisting of stages of relate, investigate, communicate, evaluate, and create can improve higher order mathematical thinking skills of gifted students, which includes analyzing, evaluating, and creating. This study suggests that integrating challenging mathematical tasks into planning, learning interventions, and assessment supports further efforts to improve the mathematical thinking ability of gifted students.
