Abstract
This study aims to: (1) To analyze the level of students' mathematical creative thinking skills after learning Problem Based Learning assisted by interactive multimedia at 41 state middle school in Medan. (2) To analyze students' mathematical creative thinking difficulties after learning Problem Based Learning assisted by interactive multimedia at 41 state middle school in Medan. This type of research is qualitative. The subjects in this study were students 41 state middle school in Medan Class VIII as many as 20 students. The results showed: (1). The level of students' mathematical creative thinking ability on the material of a two-variable linear equation system in students with medium and high abilities has the highest proportion, followed by students with low abilities (2). Mathematical creative thinking skills in problem-based learning are generally found in elaboration indicators (3) The student's answer process in creative thinking in problem-based learning is very varied, in the high category it can be completed well. Keywords: Creative thinking skills, Problem Based Learning, Interactive Multimedia. DOI: 10.7176/JEP/13-3-05 Publication date: January 31 st 2022
Highlights
The importance of mathematics is one of the subjects that is a major concern, but mathematics is still a difficult subject for students
Based on Mufidah's research (2019) stating that students' mathematics learning outcomes are low, there are still many students who get scores below the minimum completeness criteria based on interviews or initial observations with mathematics teachers at SMP Negeri 1 Pogalan because students have difficulty solving math problems
This has an impact on the low learning outcomes of mathematics achieved by students
Summary
The importance of mathematics is one of the subjects that is a major concern, but mathematics is still a difficult subject for students. Based on Mufidah's research (2019) stating that students' mathematics learning outcomes are low, there are still many students who get scores below the minimum completeness criteria based on interviews or initial observations with mathematics teachers at SMP Negeri 1 Pogalan because students have difficulty solving math problems. This can be seen when the teaching and learning process takes place students are less active in providing feedback to the teacher, only very few are able to answer the teacher's questions. As revealed by Novita (2016) which states that the actions of educators in overcoming the difficulties of students both in studying or understanding the material being studied are a form of professional development of educators
