Abstract
This research departs from the application of the scientific approach in K13 which is expected to develop students HOTS abilities. With regard to that matter, various learning models that are in accordance with the scientific approach are implemented to have optimal impact. In line with this idea, the purpose of this study is to examine comprehensively the ability of VII grade students in solving contextual problem which are seen as one of the vehicles to build HOT abilities. The subject of this study was VII grade students in the school year 2018/2019 which numbered 356 people. The research data was collected by tests then analyzed descriptively and inferentially. The results of data analysis showed that: (1) students who were taught with K13-based learning models had the ability to solve contestual questions significantly better than students who were taught conventionally; (2) the ability of students who are taught to use the K13-based learning model in completing contextual questions is more complete compared to students who are taught conventionally.
