Abstract

Creative thinking skills are among the essential competencies students must possess to face global challenges in the 21st century. This study aims to analyze the profile of students’ scientific creativity in terms of gender differences and cognitive level. A descriptive quantitative method was employed, involving 36 junior high school students. The instruments used included a scientific creativity test based on the Hu & Adey model and documentation of students’ science grades to determine their cognitive levels. Data analysis consisted of both descriptive and inferential approaches. Descriptive analysis was used to examine the characteristics of the data, including maximum score, minimum score, and average student score. Based on the scientific creativity scores, students were categorized into three groups: creative, moderately creative, and less creative. Inferential analysis involved an independent sample t-test to examine gender differences in scientific creativity and a Pearson correlation test to investigate the relationship between scientific creativity and cognitive level. The results showed that students' scientific creativity fell into the moderately creative category, with female students achieving higher average scores than male students, particularly in the dimensions of fluency and originality. The t-test revealed a significant difference in scientific creativity between male and female students. Students with higher cognitive levels tended to have better scientific creativity scores, although the Pearson correlation test showed that the relationship between cognitive level and scientific creativity was not statistically significant. In conclusion, female students demonstrated higher levels of scientific creativity than their male counterparts, and cognitive level did not show a significant correlation with students’ scientific creativity.

Abstract

This study examines the trend of interactive science learning media integrated with SDGs to improve students' science literacy. Improving science literacy is considered important considering the complexity of global challenges that require scientific understanding in sustainable decision-making. This study aims to provide a bibliometric review of publications related to interactive science learning media integrated with SDGs to improve students' science literacy during the period 2015-2024. Data were collected from Google Scholar using analysis tools such as Publish or Perish and Dimension.ai, resulting in 1,000 documents identified and selected using the PRISMA guidelines. The analysis was carried out using bibliometric and content analysis methods, supported by VOSviewer software to visualize keyword trends and emerging research patterns. The results show a significant increase in the trend of publications of interactive science media integrated with SDGs, with a peak in 2023. The dominance of keywords such as "citizen science," "sustainability," and "media literacy" indicates the important role of science literacy in preparing students to face global issues through critical thinking skills, collaboration, and digital literacy. The results of this study indicate that interactive learning media based on SDGs has become the main focus in the development of science education that is relevant and contextual to the needs of the 21st century. Although there are challenges in its implementation, the integration of SDGs in science education makes a significant contribution in creating a generation that is more aware of sustainability and is globally responsible.
