Abstract

This study aims to improve the scientific creativity of sixth-grade students at Marihat Huluan Elementary School 091283 on the water cycle through the application of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model. This study used a pre-experimental method with a sample of 19 students. The research instrument was a scientific creativity test covering aspects of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The results showed that the implementation of the PjBL model significantly improved students' scientific creativity. The average student score increased from 63.00, categorized as "Quite Creative" in the pre-test, to 80.31, categorized as "Creative" in the post-test. Furthermore, at the final stage of the study, no more students were found in the "Less Creative" category, and 31.5% of students achieved the "Very Creative" category. This increase in scientific creativity was influenced by project activities that encouraged students to actively explore, collaborate, think creatively, and solve problems independently. Thus, the Project-Based Learning model has proven effective in improving elementary school students' scientific creativity on the water cycle.
