Reshaping technology-based projects and their exploration of creativity

Abstract

This study explores how reshaping technology-based projects in learning designed using SAMR framework (substitution, augmentation, modification, redefinition) can influence students’ creativity. This research is a mixed method, combining quantitative data and qualitative data. The researcher analyzed the results of the students’ pretest and posttest scores and questionnaires and coded the interviews’ results. The research participants were 175 Indonesian students who took a hybrid learning class. This study uses the results of structural equation modeling to determine the contribution of technology to student creativity. The results showed that the most explored creativity indicator was flexibility and the least explored was elaboration. Based on the level of technology use in the SAMR framework, the modification level has the most influence on students’ creativity, while the substitution level has the least influence. Technology tends to be used as a substitute for traditional learning. Our research shows that the level of technology use in SAMR influences the level of creativity in students’ projects with varying impacts. This study concludes that integrating technology into learning in stages contributes to exploring students’ creativity and automatically increases their mastery of technology.

E-comic as a media to build an understanding of newtons concepts

“…Several studies have been conducted in order to develop various learning models, books, teaching materials, modules, learning tools, tools, and learning media with consequences for students' conceptual abilities about Newton's laws. According to the findings of the research, using learning tools or media has a considerable impact on students' conceptual abilities (Ayu, Saputro, Sarwanto, & Mulyani, 2023;Dhina, Hadisoebroto, & Mubaroq, 2019).…”

Hybrid discovery learning: Solutions for optimizing students' critical thinking and ICT skills on temperature fluctuations material

“…Students are expected to possess a range of competencies as part of the learning revolution 4.0 educational paradigm. These competencies include knowledge and resource literacy, problem definition, analytical thinking, group problem solving, critical thinking, and effective communication (Ayu, Saputro, Sarwanto, & Mulyani, 2023;Saputra, Joyoatmojo, & Wardani, 2019). Furthermore, in the era of revolution 4.0, an online learning has emerged due to Covid-19 pandemic, affecting a limited number of institutions that have managed to implement online learning successfully amidst the crisis.…”
