It was conducted during the second semester of school year 2002-2003.

The statements made by the students during classroom discussion was clustered in the phase I category, which is sharing and comparing of information. The written examinations and reports showed evident responses to application and synthesis, slightly evident responses to synthesis questions, and very evident responses to evaluation questions. Generally, evident responses were noted in their written examination and reports. The web-based transcripts indicated that students analyzed, synthesized and evaluated information gathered from the web in answering the questions in the study guide given by the teacher. In addition, learning styles and learning strategies were found to be related to the students' performance on higher order thinking skills. The often used learning strategies by the students helped in the development of their higher order thinking skills as this was found to be strongly related to their performance in written examinations and reports.
