Appropriate definition for thinking skills are still questionable because most leaders

have a different opinion. Although the interpretation of such thinking is different, but generally

most prominent thinkers agree that the mind can be associated with the use of mind to make

decisions and solve problems. Here, let conclude that thinking is the process of using the

mind to find meaning and understanding of things, exploring different ideas and inventions

and the possibility of making reasonable, to make decisions and solve problems and make

the process of reflection and metakognisi suffered. For John Dewey, thinking is operating

using the facts available to suggest that other facts to new facts can be trusted based on the

facts available. While Beyer define thinking as the manipulation of sensory input and

perception of a mental note to return to form of thought, reason, or results. Thinking involves

the three components of mental operations, knowledge, and attitudes. So, evidently thinking

skills are important in everyday life.

Today there is international recognition that education is more than just learning

knowledge and thinking, it also involves learners' feelings, beliefs and the cultural

environment of the classroom. Nevertheless, the importance of teaching thinking and

creativity is an important element in modern education. Benjamin Bloom was the first to

develop a highly popularised hierarchy of six thinking skills placed on a continuum from lower

to higher order skills: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and

evaluation. According to this system, lower order skills included recalling knowledge to

identify, label, name or describe things. Higher order skills called on the application, analysis

or synthesis of knowledge, needed when learners use new information or a concept in a new

situation, break information or concepts into parts to understand it more fully, or put ideas

together to form something new. Bloom's structure was a useful starting point and triggered

many applications to school activities and curricula.

 The examples of high order thinking skill is creating- making, designing, constructing,

planning, producing,and inventing. Second example is evaluating- checking, hypothesising,

experimenting judging,testing, and monitoring. Third example is analysing- comparing,

outlining, finding, structuring, and integrating. The fourth example is applying- implementing,

carrying out, and using. The fifth example is understanding- comparing, explaining,

classifying, exemplifying,and summarising. The last example of high order thinking skill is

remembering- recognising, listing, describing, identifying, retreving, naming, finding, and

defining.

Thinking is the process of solving the problem that happen in our daily life. This

process happen inside our brain. Our brain divided into which is left hemisphere and right

hemisphere.The left side of the brain is normally specialized in taking care of the analytical

and verbal tasks. The left side speaks much better than the right side, while the right half

takes care of the space perception tasks and music, for example. The right hemisphere is

involved when you are making a map or giving directions on how to get to your home from the

bus station. The right hemisphere can only produce rudimentary words and phrases, but

contributes emotional context to language.
