Profile of PBL Model Assisted by Digital Books to Improve Problem Solving Ability of High School Students on Dynamic Fluids

Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of analyzing the problem-solving ability profile of high school students as a consideration in applying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model based on digital books on Dynamic Fluids. The survey method used is a preliminary survey method. Data collection techniques for written exams, questionnaires, and interviews with teachers and students. This research was conducted in Gresik district with a total of 143 high school students from 5 classes in class XI, there were 78 boys and 67 girls. This study was conducted in the even semester of 2020/2021. Written test data were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. From the results of research based on problem-solving abilities that were tested on 143 students in the low category with a range of 0-40 as many as 133 students consisting of 76 men and 58 women. Medium category with a range of 41 – 70 as many as 9 students consisting of 0 boys and 9 students. While the High category with a range of 71 - 100 as many as 1 student, namely 1 female. Applying PBL techniques will improve students' problem-solving skills. Therefore, it can be concluded that in order to improve students' problem-solving skills, they need updates in learning, such as the application of an attractively packaged PBL learning model that is adapted to the current learning era

The Effectiveness of Using Digital Books on the Problem-Solving Ability of High School Students in Physics Learning

“…In fact, in several articles, teaching materials in digital books are needed in an era that uses all of this technology as the results of this study indicate that students need textbooks as teaching aids, as well as pictures and videos, whose learning styles can improve students' ability to solve problems [29]. To improve students' problem-solving abilities, it is necessary to create new things for learning, such as transferring learning styles to a digital learning environment [16]. Moreover, digital books are practical for both girls and boys.…”

“…Education has to provide the best resources for the learning process to run well, such as teacher training programs that set standards to produce quality graduates who are ready to compete worldwide [33]. One factor determining the quality of graduates is teaching materials or learning media [16]. Teaching materials are essential in learning [13].…”

Improving the Ability of Principals to Carrying Out Academic Supervision Through Managerial Supervision with a Collaborative Approach

“…Explanation of competence is divided into three: attitude, knowledge, and skills. This competency is prepared to welcome the 21st century, emphasizing critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, and innovation (Neswary & Prahani, 2022;Pristianti & Prahani, 2022;Qotrunnada& Prahani, 2022). The researcher showed the presentation slides for material 2, namely learning models.…”

A Profile of Senior High School Students’ Problem-solving Skills on Dynamic Fluid Materials

“…There are several ways to improve the low level of problemsolving, for example, by designing a valid, practical, and effective problem-solving learning [27,28]. The application of research results related to students' problem-solving skills can help to address students' low problem-solving abilities, such as (1) PBL (Problem-Based Learning) models have been proven to improve students' problem-solving abilities [24,26]; (2) The CTL (Contextual Teaching and Learning) model can improve problem-solving skills [13,28,29]; (3) Improving learning media and learning tools that are relevant in improving students problem-solving skills [30][31][32]; (4) Familiarize students in solving everyday life problems [33][34][35][36]. The abovementioned solutions can be used as an alternative by teachers as a suitable learning model supported by relevant learning media to improve students' problem-solving [37][38][39].…”

“…Problem-solving abilities are crucial since they involve many learning processes [12,13]. Problem-solving abilities have a significant role for students to deal with problems [14,15], and they affect emotional, cognitive, and psychomotor processes. Problem-solving is also a crucial component of scientific thinking [9,16,17].…”
