Abstract

This study investigated the need for an ethno-STEM-based assessment tool to evaluate creative thinking skills in prospective physics teachers. Data collection was conducted through a quantitative descriptive survey involving 53 first-year physics education students at Universitas Sriwijaya using Google Forms. The collected data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel to provide a comprehensive overview. The findings revealed that 81.13% of the participants hailed from South Sumatera, 96.23% expressed a preference for basic physics courses, and 98.11% recognized the importance of mastering creative thinking skills. Furthermore, 81.13% students indicated a strong demand for the development of ethno-STEM-based assessment tools. These results underscore the potential impact of culturally relevant assessment methods on fostering creative thinking in physics education. Integrating ethno-STEM into assessments not only enhances student engagement, but also cultivates essential creative thinking skills. Ultimately, this approach aims to build a more meaningful and effective physics education experience by bridging theoretical knowledge with students' cultural backgrounds and real-world applications, thereby supporting future educators in delivering impactful lessons.

Abstract

Teachers need to improve students’ creative thinking skills by incorporating relevant everyday contexts. Soccer, as a familiar part of daily life, has not been widely used in education, and its impact on creative thinking requires further study. This research aimed to develop a contextual physics e-module centered on soccer to enhance creative thinking in physics learning. The study followed Rowntree's development model, including planning, development, and evaluation, with Tessmer’s formative evaluation through expert reviews, one-on-one assessments, small-group evaluations, and field tests. The creative thinking indicators used in the research are fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Data were collected from 346 high school students in Palembang via walkthroughs, questionnaires, and written tests, then analyzed using SPSS version 16. The results showed that the soccer-based physics e-module is valid (Sig. 0.00), practical (one-to-one: 82.75%; small group: 91.00%), and in the moderate category for improving creative thinking (N-gain: 0.59). These findings highlight the need to explore other everyday contexts and assess the long-term impact of the e-module across different educational settings.
