Abstract

To enhance students' critical thinking abilities, it is essential to adopt an interactive learning model where students actively participate, and the instructor acts as a facilitator. This can be achieved through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model in the teaching and learning process. This study aimed to evaluate the improvement of learning outcomes and critical thinking skills through the application of the PBL model among students. Conducted as classroom action research, it involved 40 students from Yogyakarta State University. The research comprised two cycles, each consisting of two sessions. Instruments used included observation sheets for learning implementation, critical thinking assessment sheets, and tests. Data analysis was performed quantitatively using descriptive analysis methods. The findings revealed that (1) the learning process was effectively implemented, with observation data from both cycles rated as good, with a mode of 4 (good); (2) students' learning outcomes improved, with the average post-test scores increasing from 70.85 in Cycle 1 to 80.63 in Cycle 2; (3) students' critical thinking skills also enhanced, with the average score rising from 68.54 in Cycle 1 to 82.08 in Cycle 2. The conclusion of this study is that implementing PBL in the learning process can significantly enhance both critical thinking and learning outcomes. The research implies that teachers' professional competence can be developed through the application of PBL. It is recommended that teachers integrate the PBL model into their teaching practices to foster students' higher-order thinking skills, such as critical thinking, creativity, and scientific reasoning abilities.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of ethnoscience-based Project-Based Learning (PjBL) on students' science literacy, measure the level of improvement in students' science literacy, and analyze students' science literacy levels in terms of context, competence, and knowledge aspects. The research uses a mixed-method approach with a sequential explanatory design. The quantitative part of the study is conducted using a quasi-experiment, while the qualitative part employs field research. Data analysis techniques include the Mann-Whitney U test for quantitative data and triangulation techniques to validate data. The Miles and Huberman and Saldana model is used for qualitative data analysis.The study found that the use of ethnoscience-based PjBL significantly affects students' science literacy, with a significance value of 0.003 < 0.05. The increase in science literacy in the experimental class is categorized as high, at 0.71, while the control class shows a moderate category, at 0.60. In terms of science literacy levels, the experimental class reached a minimum of level 4, while the control class still had students at level 3. This means that students in the experimental class had better science literacy compared to the control class, particularly in terms of prospective elementary school teachers. Among the three aspects of science literacy, the competence aspect was the highest in both the experimental and control classes compared to the other aspects.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is: to describe the science learning experience in terms of creative thinking and to describe the level of students' ability to think creatively using the SRBP model. This study used Design-Based Research (DBR) to investigate the efficacy of hands-on experiments in science learning, combining qualitative and quantitative research methods. Participants were Elementary School Teacher Education students who had taken science lessons, with a total of 105 students. We have developed and examined how this approach might direct creative educational activities. This study uses the Scientific Reading-Based Project (SRBP) conceptual framework. Data collection techniques include questionnaires, observations, interviews, and student portfolios. The results showed that students' learning experience from the creativity aspect increased with each cycle. The learning participants' responses were enjoyable, stimulating students to think creatively. Students performed better because they learned and recalled information through practical experiences. This research recommends applying an innovative learning model that incorporates the principles of discovery and observation, which can stimulate students to think creatively.
