The analysis of the application of learning materials based on project-based learning to improve the elementary school students’ creative thinking skills in solving contextual division problems

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the analysis learning materials implementation based on project-based learning to improve the elementary school students’ creative thinking skills in solving contextual division problems. This type of research is using a mixed research, which is a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. The research respondents consist of two classes, namely a control class as many as 19 students and an experimental class as many as 20 students. The results shows after the implementation using the application learning materials base on project-based learning, it was found that the presentation of students' creative thinking skills for the control class are 77,19% for fluency, 70,18% for flexibility, and 56,14% for novelty. While the experimental class are 82,5% for fluency, 91,67% for flexibility, and 67,5% for novelty. Then the score of the indepent sample t-test from post-test shows that there is a significant difference between the control class and the experimental class with the sig (2-tailed) value is 0.000 (p = <0,05). It can be concluded that the application learning materials base on project-based learning can improve students' creative thinking skills in solving contextual division problems.

Studi Meta-Analisis: Efektivitas Model Project-Based Learning Terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kreatif Matematis Siswa

“…Beberapa studi menampilkan hasil penelitiannya meliputi adanya pengaruh positif secara signifikan pada penerapan model PjBL terhadap kemampuan berpikir kreatif matematis siswa daripada menggunakan model pembelajaran konvensional (Octariani & Rambe, 2020); Noviyana, 2017;Nurhayati, 2017). Sedangkan beberapa studi lainnya menujukan hasil penelitian yang berbeda yaitu bahwa penerapan model PjBL tidak memberikan pengaruh positif secara signifikan terhadap kemampuan berpikir kreatif matematis siswa daripada menggunakan model pembelajaran konvensional (Sudianto et al, 2019;Shalihah et al, 2020). Hal ini menunjukkan tidak adanya konsistensi pada hasil penelitian dengan topik yang sama.…”

Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran Berbasis Proyek dengan Strategi Berdiferensiasi terhadap Keterampilan Berpikir Kreatif

“…Hasil temuan ini sejalan dengan penelitian sebelumnya yang membuktikan bahwa model pembelajaran berbasis proyek memberi pengaruh positif terhadap kemampuan berpikir kreatif siswa dalam pembelajaran IPA (Fiteriani et al, 2021;Hasibuan et al, 2022;Mamahit et al, 2020;Pramesti et al, 2022;Pratika Surya & Wahyudi, 2018;Putri et al, 2019;Saefullah et al, 2021;Saputri et al, 2022;Setiawan et al, 2021;Shalihah et al, 2020;Sukmawijaya et al, 2019;Taufiq et al, 2018;Viana et al, 2019;Waliyati et al, 2019;Widyasmah et al, 2020;Yamin et al, 2020). Pada pembelajaran berbasis proyek siswa perlu melakukan beberapa hal seperti menerima tantangan dari masalah, merencanakan strategi penyelesaian masalah, menerapkan strategi, dan menguji kembali solusi yang diperoleh.…”

Effectiveness of Bilingual Project-Based Materials to Facilitate Literacy and Numeracy Teaching

“…The project-based learning is chosen because it offers several advantages for elementary school students, as it engages them in active, hands-on learning experiences that go beyond traditional classroom methods [18], [19], [20]. Besides, it also allows teachers to integrate knowledge and content subjects, for example, mathematics and languages, into one creative group project [21], [22], [23]. This integration will encourage a more holistic and comprehensive understanding of the material.…”

“…It breaks down the artificial barriers between subjects and shows students how they are interconnected. Furthermore, students will develop their information analysis, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills through project-based learning [23], [24], [25], [26], [47]. They learn to identify and address complex problems independently or collaboratively, fostering creativity and innovation.…”
