Abstract

Abstract: Creativity is one of the skills that students must have as a requirement to face the challenges of 21st century learning. This research aims to identify and analyze research trends on creativity in science learning in the form of journal ranking classifications, author and country of origin classifications as well as classifications based on keywords. This research is a type of qualitative research. The data used in this research was obtained from documents indexed by Google Scholar from 2018-2023 using Publish or Perish and Dimension.ai. The data analysis method used is bibliometric analysis with the help of VOSviewer software. The results of the analysis obtained show that the trend of writing articles about creativity in science learning has increased significantly in 2020, decreased in 2021 and increased again in 2022. The types of publications carried out include articles contained in journals, chapters, books, monographs, proceedings and preprints. The journal that contains the most articles about the PjBL model in science learning is the Journal of Physics Conference Series with total publications of 560 articles and 2,193 citations.    Keywords: creativity, science learning.

Abstract

Abstract: Problem-solving skills are among the most important competencies of students, especially in the area of science education in the 21st century. Problem-solving skills enhance critical, logical, and creative thinking skills, which are necessary to solve complex real-life problems. This study is intended to identify and analyze research trends with regard to problem-solving skills in science learning from 2014 to 2023. A qualitative bibliometric approach has been used, and the data was collected using Publish or Perish and Dimensions.ai. In total, 200 documents indexed by Google Scholar were analyzed. Research trends, key keywords, and publication patterns were mapped and visualized using the VOSviewer software. The findings indicated that research on problem-solving skills gained consistent interest over the last decade, with the highest number of publications in 2023. Journals were the most common type of publication, followed by proceedings, chapters, and books. Among all publication venues, the Journal of Physics: Conference Series turned out to be the most important, publishing 784 articles and receiving 2567 citations. The most frequent keywords accompanying research in problem-solving are "critical thinking," "science learning," "motivation," and "teacher," which point to the interdisciplinary nature of the topic. Bibliometric visualization shows the emergence of new research clusters: student skills development, teaching strategies, and assessment methods. The conclusion from this study is that, while the research on problem-solving skills has grown steadily in science education, the implementation of practical teaching strategies in a classroom to enhance these skills remains fragmented. The future direction for research should encompass experimental studies through the integration of problem-based learning approaches that are important in the development of critical and creative thinking among students. Such findings have an important basis for educators, policymakers, and researchers to devise evidence-based practices that enhance the outcomes of science education.     Keywords: problem-solving skills, 21st-century competencies, science learning, bibliometric analysis, critical thinking.
