Abstract

This study aims to explore the problem-solving abilities of prospective physics teachers based on multiple intelligences in the context of fluid mechanics. The research employed a survey approach by combining a problem-solving test and a multiple intelligences questionnaire to identify students’ dominant intelligence profiles. The participants were categorized into three dominant intelligence types: verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, and spatial. The results indicate notable differences in problem-solving characteristics among the groups. Students with verbal-linguistic intelligence tended to demonstrate higher proficiency in understanding and articulating concepts through coherent and argumentative explanations, resulting in more comprehensive verbal solutions. Students with logical-mathematical intelligence solved problems by identifying patterns and physical quantities using systematic mathematical procedures, although their solutions often lacked detailed conceptual explanations. Meanwhile, students with spatial intelligence primarily used visualization, including sketches, diagrams, or other representations, to interpret situations and derive solutions. These findings suggest that multiple intelligences influence students’ cognitive strategies for solving physics problems. The study highlights the need for instructional designs that are responsive to students’ diverse intelligence profiles to optimize the development of problem- solving skills.

Abstract

This study analyzes the creative thinking abilities of Grade 11 students at SMAN 14 Gowa on the topic of dynamic fluids. The researchers employed a quantitative descriptive design using a survey method. The study involved 82 students selected through purposive sampling. The researchers collected data using five validated open-ended questions, each representing an indicator of creative thinking ability: fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The results indicated that, overall, students’ creative thinking ability was categorized as fairly creative, with an average interval score of 14.7. Among the indicators, fluency showed the highest achievement (62.20%), classified as high, followed by flexibility (59%), elaboration (56%), and originality (52%), all of which fell into the moderate category. These findings suggest that students demonstrate strength in generating multiple ideas; however, further instructional support is needed to enhance their ability to produce original ideas and to develop and explain ideas systematically.
