Skills in Year Five students. This study utilises quasi-experimental design using pre and post-tests.&#13;
The development of edutainment module is based on the ADDIE model. The samples comprised&#13;
of 33 treatment group students and 33 control group students who were randomly selected. The&#13;
instruments used are pre-test and post-test. Based on the findings of the independent sample test&#13;
for higher order thinking skills applying, analyzing, evaluating and synthesizing, showed&#13;
significant differences [t (64), p &lt;.05) between the post-test scores of treatment and control&#13;
groups i.e. all levels showing p = 0.00. In conclusion, this study has found that learning by&#13;
entertaining students was effective in raising the students' level of thinking skills. The implication&#13;
of the study showed that edutainment learning can be used by primary school science teachers&#13;
to improve higher order thinking skill in students.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">L Education (General)</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2019-09-06</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Human Resource Management Academic Research Society (www.hrmars.com)</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
