Abstract

Education must lead the student body develop higher order thinking capabilities. Reflective thinking makes students reason in a superior way, so that they achieve to apply their knowledge. The objective was to know the way in which fifteen-year-old students develop their thinking skill through reflection. The methodology chosen was qualitative. During the investigation students solved and reflected questions of the PISA tests that evaluate their capacity to transfer knowledge, considering this as a high thinking skill. The results showed great progress in the thinking capacity of the students, improving their school performance and their level according to PISA.
