Abstract

Creativity is recognized as a crucial 21st-century skill. Creativity plays a significant role in societal life, bringing forth something that did not exist before, whether it be in the form of products, processes, or ideas. Creativity is vital for navigating the limitations we encounter, solving problems across various aspects of life, and generating new opportunities or works to address a range of issues, including in the realm of education. Creative thinking is the process that yields creativity. The better someone is at creative thinking, the more creative they are as individuals. In other words, that person possesses high creativity. Involving students in designing their own experimental procedures will encourage their scientific creativity. Project-based learning requires students to conduct experiments to solve problems and complete given projects. Creative thinking from students is essential in these project endeavors. Hence, in this article, the researchers attempt to unearth the advantages inherent in project-based learning for bolstering students' creative thinking skills in science education

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.
