The Relationship between Problem-Solving Skills and Student Academic Achievement: A Meta-Analysis in Education

The use of meta-analysis allows the results obtained to be representative, and meta-analysis of the correlation between problem-solving skills and students' learning outcomes and/or achievements is no exception. Problem-solving skills are very important for students in various learning contexts. This study aims to describe the relationship and effects of problem-solving skills on learning outcomes and or student achievement. This study used a descriptive quantitative method using meta-analysis that focuses on the relationship between two or more variables. The meta-analysis was conducted on 22 articles selected from the screening of articles from 2008-2023 in the SINTA (Science and Technology Index) and Garuda (Garba Rujukan Digital) databases. The results showed that the impact of problem-solving ability on learning outcomes and achievement was very significant at 84.8%. There is a strong positive correlation (r = 0.69) between problem-solving ability and student learning outcomes and/or achievement. The distribution of studies in this meta-analysis is relatively symmetrical, and there is no publication bias. Nonetheless, it is necessary to consider potential sources of heterogeneity when applying these findings to educational practice.

The effect of problem-solving skills on blood glucose regulation and disease management in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

This cross-sectional study examined the relationship between problem-solving skills, glucose regulation, and disease management in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) as well as the role of depression in this association. The participants (n=54) were recruited from adiabetes camp. Problem-solving inventory (PSI), Beck depression inventory (BDI), and diabetes self-management profile (DSMP) were administered as tests. Forty-six participants who have been diagnosed with T1DM for at least a year and completed the survey were included in the analyses. Participants were categorized into high and low depression groups based on the median split. Student's t-test was used to detect demographic differences in groups. Linear regression models were used to examine the association between PSI, HbA1c, and DSMP. Regressions for PSI and DSMP were repeated in low and high-depression groups. Of the 46 participants with T1DM, 52 % were female, with a mean age of 13.96 ± 1.94 (range 10-17). Avoidant and monitoring style of problem solving as well as the total score of PSI significantly predicted HbA1c levels. Impulsive and avoidant style of problem solving, problem-solving confidence, and total scores of PSI significantly predicted DSMP (p<0.05). The high depression group had a significantly higher DSMP score than the low depression group (p=0.001), with no difference in HbA1c levels (p=0.968). When the DSMP regressions were repeated, no significant associations were seen in the low depression group. Avoidant style of problem solving, problem-solving confidence, and the total score of PSI significantly predicted DSMP in the high depression group (p<0.005). Problem solving-skills are essential in children with T1DM for a successful disease management. Depression modulates the association between the problem-solving and self-management profile.

ANALISIS KEMAMPUAN MEMECAHKAN MASALAH MELALUI PEMBELAJARAN SOCIAL LEARNING UNTUK MENINGKATKAN INOVASI BERWIRAUSAHA DAN KREATIVITAS PADA MAHASISWA EKONOMI DI KOTA MAKASSAR

This study aims to find out whether various universities apply social learning methods in lectures and to find out how students respond to learning based on social learning methods. In this study, researchers obtained data from students of the Faculty of Economics and Business at several universities in Makassar by using observation and descriptive techniques which are included in the type of qualitative research. The scope of the research area includes the location where the research is located, namely the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) in the city of Makassar. The research results obtained are the effect of problem-solving skills through social learning on increasing entrepreneurial innovation and creativity in economics students in the city of Makassar, participants in the entrepreneurship program are more likely than non-participants to have a higher attitude or intention to start their own business four or five years after their studies are completed which, even if accompanied by social learning itself, will show a clear difference between these differences.

Integrated Social Cognitive Theory with Learning Input Factors: The Effects of Problem-Solving Skills and Critical Thinking Skills on Learning Performance Sustainability

E-learning is expected to become a common teaching and learning approach in educational institutions in the near future; thus, the success of e-learning initiatives must be ensured in order to make this a sustainable mode of learning. In order to improve students’ learning performance through the use of e-learning in Saudi Arabia’s higher education, it was the objective of this paper to examine the relationships between social cognitive theory and learning input factors and the reflective thinking and inquiry learning style as well as the indirect effects of student problem-solving and critical thinking skills. As a result, this study thoroughly assessed the social cognitive theory that is currently in use, along with learning input components and situational factors that should be carefully taken into account while introducing an online education system into Saudi Arabia’s top universities as a way of ensuring learning sustainability. As a result, 294 university students completed a questionnaire that served as the initial dataset for the research study, and the proposed conceptual model was comprehensively assessed using SEM. The research results demonstrated that the inquiry style of learning and reflective thinking have always had a significant impact on the social involvement, human engagement, social power, social identity, and social support. Similar findings were obtained regarding the impact of problem-solving and critical thinking skills on the inquiry-based learning approach and reflective thinking. Thus, students’ ability to learn in Saudi Arabia’s higher education is greatly influenced by their ability to solve problems and think critically. Therefore, it is almost certain that this research study will aid university policy makers in their decision on whether to fully deploy an online learning system as a way of ensuring learning sustainability at educational institutions throughout Saudi Arabia.

Brain activity of problem solving proccess: a systematic literarure review

Comprehending the problem-solving process is an effort that is no less important than teaching problem-solving skills at school. By understanding the problem-solving process, it will be easier to teach at school. Several neurological studies discuss activities in solving problems, but the scope of the discussion is narrow and in-depth. On the other hand, it requires complete information about how the problem-solving process is a complex cognitive process. This research is a systematic literature review using the PRISMA approach. The result shows that the problem-solving skills were developing based on ages of development. The effectiveness of problem-solving skills is characterized by minimal brain activity but produces the right solution. In addition, the result of the review shows that semantic ability and mathematical logic ability play an important role in a problem solving process. Getting complete problem solving process needs many parts of the brain. DLPFC and IFG are the dominant parts of the brain in the process of solving problems.
