Abstract
This study aimed to investigate construct validity of the learning and innovation skills model for senior high school students with the empirical data which supported the guidelines for learning and innovation skills development of senior high school students. The sample consisted of 300 senior high school students from the Office of Secondary Education Area 39 for the academic year 2021, who were chosen through multi-stage random sampling. The instrument was a Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS) for assessing learning and innovation skills. A second order confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the data. The findings revealed that senior high school students’ learning and innovation skills comprised of three major components: 1) critical thinking and problem solving, 2) communication and collaboration, and 3) creativity and innovation. The correlation matrix analysis of 8 observed variables of senior high school students’ learning and innovation skills revealed a level of statistical significance of .05, the correlations ranged from .141 to .515, and KMO was 0.807. A second order confirmatory factor analysis of learning and innovation skills revealed that the model was consistent with the empirical data (c2 (14, n = 300) = 21.566, p = .088, CFI = .989, TLI = .979, RMSEA = .041, SRMR = .026). This empirical evidence showed that there were 3 main components for learning and innovation skills assessment of senior high school students that supported the guidelines for learning and innovation skills development of senior high school students.
