Use of Project-Based and Problem-Based Learning Models in Practicing Student Creativity

Abstract

The aim of this research is to discover the significance upon the use of project–based learning model and problem–based learning towards students’ creativity. This experimental research is using one group pre–test design, and 10 students from food processing course will become the sample. The instrument used within this research is students’ creativity exercise sheet, which has been developed by the researchers. Data extraction is done through a test, where such test is conducted before the course by implementing project–based and problem–based learning model. The analysis utilized is a students’ creativity scale (which consist of low (1), moderate (2), high (3), and very high (4)). Later, in order to observe its significance, N-gain analysis will be employed. The research outcome of students’ creativity, prior to the use of the aforementioned learning models, is included into moderate category. According to the analysis of performance indicator, there is an indicator that underwent an improvement, which is fluency indicator.
