Abstract

Current learning aims to improve students' skills to face 21st-century life. Creative thinking skills include 21st-century skills in innovation and technological development. This study aims to determine the improvement of students' creative thinking skills in the pandemic era using inquiry-based learning. This study uses a mixed method with an embedded design. The creative thinking skills test instrument is in the form of 14 open-ended questions developed based on the Scientific Creativity Structure Model compiled by Weiping Hu and Philip Adey. The analysis data using paired t-test. The results of statistical tests using paired t-tests showed a significant value of 0.000. Based on the decision-making criteria, if the significance value is less than 0.005, then Ho is rejected. The result can be interpreted as a significant difference between the pre-and post-test results. In addition, the increase in pretest-posttest scores was tested using n-gain and obtained a score of 0.55 in the medium category. Therefore, implementing levels of inquiry with blended learning on the light wave concept can improve the creative thinking skills in the medium category.

Abstract

The fast development of internet and mobile technologies prompt this study. Mobile learning technology is accessible and convenient, as students can use advantageous devices to acquire knowledge at any time and location. Mobile learning can effectively meet students' educational requirements in acquiring knowledge. Furthermore, the design of learning materials that are inappropriate for mobile learning might be attributed to one of the reasons of students' cognitive stress. The purpose of this study is to see how mobile learning (Edmodo) on excretory system content affects cognitive load and student concept mastering. This research used a quasi-experimental method consisting of two classes: the experimental class (using mobile learning) and the control class (conventional learning). The instrument used to measure cognitive load consisted of questionnaires of intrinsic cognitive load, extraneous cognitive, and germane cognitive load, while the instrument for mastery of concepts consisted of pre-test and post-test. In addition, there was also a student response questionnaire to review the use of mobile learning in the experimental class. The data that had been collected were analyzed by a descriptive statistic method using SPSS 25.0. The results show that students in both classes have a cognitive load that can be controlled, but the cognitive load in the experimental class was more controllable than in the control class. The result of mastery of concept showed that the experimental class was higher than the control class, with a post-test significance value of 0.001 <0.05. Thus, it can be concluded that mobile learning influence the excretory system material on the cognitive load and mastery of students' concepts.
