Abstract

Learning styles can help students enhance their creative thinking abilities. However, the teacher did not modify the learning style during the learning process, therefore students’ creative thinking abilities did not meet expectations. This study aims to analyze elementary school children's learning styles from the standpoint of creative thinking skills. This is a descriptive quantitative research approach using a survey study design. The sample for this research was fourth-grade elementary school students. The tools used to collect data included tests, questionnaires, and observations. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. According to the findings of this study, children with a visual learning style have high levels of creative thinking. As a result, this study reveals that every kid may develop creative thinking abilities ideally with learning that can adjust to individuals' learning styles. The findings of this study may help to improve students' creative thinking skills and serve as one of the answers for teachers in selecting learning models or approaches based on students' learning styles. Future studies should evaluate the efficacy of strategies or models for improving pupils' creative talents. Aside from that, it is feasible to create media, models, and textbooks to help primary school children strengthen their creative thinking skills.

Abstract

The use of smartphones in learning activities holds great potential, especially through Android-based learning media, which allows smartphones to serve as tools for operating learning media in the educational process. This potential is further supported by the characteristics of today's students, who are accustomed to gadgets in their daily lives, so both teachers and students do not face difficulty in adjustment. This study aims to develop an innovative Android-based ethnomathematics learning media product for the topic of 3D shapes for elementary school students. This research is a research and development (R&D) study adopting the Alessi & Trollip model, which includes the stages of planning, design, and development. The subjects of this study include two media experts, two content experts, two fifth-grade teachers, and six sixth-grade students. Data were collected using non-test techniques with instruments in the form of validation questionnaires/feasibility questionnaires for media experts, content experts, teachers, and students. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed descriptively to find the average score of each assessment. The results of the study show that the Android-based ethnomathematics learning media received an average total score of 4.65 from media experts, which falls into the "very good" qualification, 4.5 from content experts with the "very good" qualification, 4.5 from two teachers with the "very good" qualification, and 4.3 from students with the "good" qualification. Based on the positive assessments from experts and users, the Android-based learning media developed in this study is deemed "feasible" for use in mathematics learning activities at the elementary school level.
