DESCRIPTION
Graduate school is known to be much more intensive than undergraduate work, so it is important that students develop good time management skills. We know that in graduate study, there are so many assignments, project work, appointment with professor or instructor. Therefore, the application of Higher Levels of Thinking (HOTs) are more important than Lower level of thinking (LOTs). HOTS require that we apply the facts that we learn. These skills are commonly defined based on Bloom's Taxonomy, which examines and categorizes different levels of thinking and HOTS include with: analysis, evaluation and creationIn order to promote HOTS, graduate students must not only have a basic knowledge and comprehension of concepts but be able to apply what they are learning through an activities. Critical reading involves presenting a reasoned argument that evaluates and analyses what you have read. Being critical, therefore - in an academic sense - means advancing your understanding, not not to find fault, but also want to assess the strength of the evidence and the argument.Group projects can help students develop a host of skills that are increasingly important in the professional world. Positive group experiences have been shown to contribute to student learning, improve the communication skills, discussion, solve the problem and support the succesfull study, especially in the graduate study The new skills and knowledge that you gain from your graduate education can improve your ability to do your best in work and obtained a better position, means that you will have more opportunities to improve your career
