“…Problem-solving is a method comprising of several goal-oriented stages and is of great use in solving personal individual problems (Armagan, Sagır, & Çelik, 2009). Exceptional students who acquire this skill can hopefully be successful in each and every stage of their life, even in confronting with the problems they have not faced yet.…”

The current study aimed at investigating the possible impact of the problem-solving method of instruction on the exceptional students' creativity. A sample of 50 male exceptional (Mild intellectual disability) students studying in the third grade of junior high school was chosen and divided into two equal groups. Both groups filled out the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT) in pre-and post-test stages. They also completed the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM) as a covariate variable. The results of covariance analysis revealed that the mean value for creativity score was higher for the students provided with the problem-solving method of instruction than that of their counterparts provided with the traditional method of instruction while the effect of intelligence was controlled. The scores obtained for the factors including fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration also increased through problem-solving method of instruction.

“…Problem-solving skills require to intellectually, logically, and systematically select the best solution of the problems (Ahghar, 2012) and bring them to achieve the goals in solving complex problems (e.g., Chaudhry & Rasool, 2012;Yu, Fan, & Lin, 2015). The problem-solving skills not only help the students in solving academic problems but also in all problems of the life fi elds (Armagan, Sagir, & Çelik, 2009;Bolkan, Cakici, & Cakici, 2012). A better students' problem solving skills, a high probability of success in any kind of activities in everyday life.…”

Problem-solving skill is an important component in achieving a successful 21st-century learning system. This research aimed to explore Pre-service Chemistry Teacher’ (PsCT’) problem-solving skill after CBL (Context-based learning) implementation with vocational case on petroleum and polymer topic of chemistry. A descriptive study on the CBL implementation was adopted in this research. The study focused on the exploration of PsCT’ problem-solving skill. Through convenient sampling technique, the sample covered a total of 34 PsCT (10 males and 24 females) who enrolled in vocational chemistry course were selected in this study. The data of PsCT’ problem-solving skill were collected through Rubric for Problem-solving skill (RPSS). There were four aspects of problem-solving skill used in this research, namely problems identification skills, information collection skills, skills to provide possible solution, and skills of communicating the possible solution. These data were analysed according to descriptive quantity and one-way ANOVA technique. Three open-ended questions were used to explore PsCT’s view about the relevance, usefulness, and effectiveness of the CBL implementation. There was a significant difference on PsCT’ problems solving skills among petroleum and polymer topic. The result of this study indicated that PsCT’ problem-solving skill still in sufficient category. Hence, these skills should be improved especially on the skills to analyse the problem comprehensively and make an appropriate conclusion. The PsCT have positive view toward CBL implementation about the relevance, usefulness, and effectiveness. The implementation of CBL with vocational case is promising since it could improve PsCT’ problem-solving skills.

“…Problem solving skill includes divergent (creative or lateral) and convergent (critical) thinking processes has an important knowledge transfer role because it can connect knowledge and action, declarative and procedural knowledge [17]. Problem solving skills help individuals in solving problems in all stage of life not only in academic life [18]. Teachers need to have a good problem solving skills because the education-instruction process is an important process [19].…”

The concept of 21 st Century Learning is to make graduates having competencies in mastering the skill of thinking, complex communication and solving a problem which is very important according to the current global dynamics need. The 21 st Century Learning is a new paradigm of learning being applied in Indonesia. This method has been adopted by several countries in the world such as Hong Kong, Switzerland, and the U.S. Based on several observations, the application of the 21 st Century Learning in Indonesia especially Surakarta still has to be enhanced. Therefore, the objective of this research was to analyze the implementation and assessment of 21 st century learning which had been done by Physics teachers of the senior high school in Surakarta. The subjects were 13 Physics teachers from 7 senior high school in Surakarta. The techniques of collecting data were interview, documentation and using a questionnaire. This research used concurrent triangulation strategy and descriptive analysis method. The implementation of the learning process and assessment of critical thinking and problem solving skills towards students in senior high school had attempted to build critical thinking and problem solving skill through various activities such as discussion, doing some experiment, observation through many literatures and having an oral presentation. However, the assessment instruments which had been used had not reflected the efforts to assess critical thinking and problem solving skill, so that they had not described these abilities. The assessment of thinking skills was limited to students' cognitive abilities, that was proved by the results of exam questions documentation where each item was at the level of C3 Blooms' Taxonomy in majority. The implementation and assessment of critical thinking and problem solving skills require the precise instruments in order to measure a students' ability. Teachers need some training to develop critical thinking and problem solving instruments.
