| heal.abstract | The absence of sufficient, convincing, research-based documentation is often quoted as an argument against any change in the currently dominant lower-order cognitive skills (LOCS)-type examinations. Our aim with this paper is the fostering of higher-order cognitive skills (HOCS) learning, based on three relevant research studies: two conducted in Greece, and one in Israel. A different pattern of students"™ performance was revealed on examination questions requiring HOCS compared with that on questions requiring LOCS. A high performance on the latter does not necessarily guarantee a high performance on the former, and the reverse may also be the case. A "�high-stake"™ examination, used for entry into higher education in Greece, was found to select the best LOCS-performing students! Alternative forms of examination, such as the "�take-home exam"™, proved to be useful mainly for the enhancement of university students"™ active participation in courses, their self-directed, independent study, and the cultivation of their HOCS through the inclusion of questions requiring HOCS, dealing with material not covered in class. In a related Israeli study, conducted within an introductory freshman general and inorganic chemistry course, it was found that, given a free choice between HOCS- and LOCS-type questions, the top performing students preferred to answer questions requiring LOCS, in spite of proclaiming their preference of those requiring HOCS. | en |
