A Proposed Educational Program Based on Project-Based Learning (PBL) for Teaching Home Economics and its Impact on Developing Creative Thinking and Problem-solving Skills of Third-grade Intermediate Female Students

This study examined the effectiveness of using project-based learning (PBL) for the teaching of home economics and determine its impact on the development of students’ creative thinking and problem-solving skills. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researchers used the quasi-experimental approach. Pre- and post-intervention tests were conducted with two (experimental and control) groups of third-grade intermediate female students. Two tests were administered: one to test the students’ creative thinking skills, and the other to test their problem-solving skills. The control group were taught a home economics unit by conventional teaching methods; the experimental group were taught using the PBL approach. The following materials and tools have been prepared by the researchers: a proposed educational program based on project-based learning (PBL), a test of creative thinking skills, and a test of problem-solving skills. The findings revealed that there were statistical differences (0.05) between the mean scores for the pre-PBL and post-PBL tests, indicating that PBL significantly improved the students’ creative thinking and problem-solving skills. Several recommendations and suggestions are offered based on the findings.

Analysis of Creative Thinking Skill in Solving Mathematical Problems Viewed from the Types of Personality

Creative thinking skills are part of the student’s thinking process in solving math problems. Each student has a different thought process according to their personality, so needed suitable learning model for each type of integration. One of the personality type that can be used to review students creative thinking skills is the Keirsey personality type. The purpose of this research is to obtain a description of student personality types based on Keirsey personality test results and creative thinking skills of students in solving mathematical problems on personality types Guardian, Artisan, Rational, and Idealist. The research subjects were students of class X MIPA 1 in one of the senior high schools in Bandung by purposive sampling. This research is descriptive-qualitative research. The results showed that subjects with Guardian personality types became the majority in the class and students with Idealist personality types became the minority. Then based on the results of the analysis, students with Guardian personality types meet indicators of fluency, novelty, and elaboration; Artisans meet indicators of fluency and novelty; Idealists meet indicators of fluency and novelty; and Rational meet all indicators of creative thinking skills, namely fluency, flexibility, novelty and elaboration. By knowing the student’s personality type, it is expected to be a reference in teaching methods in order to improve student creative thinking skills.
