IMPLEMENTASI CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING BERBANTUAN LIVEWORKSHEET UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN PROSES SAINS SISWA SMP

IMPLEMENTATION OF CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING USING LIVEWORKSHEETS TO IMPROVE SCIENCE PROCESS SKILLS OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

Keterampilan proses sains merupakan salah satu keterampilan penting yang perlu diajarkan kepada siswa untuk meningkatkan kualitas siswa sehingga proses pembelajaran idealnya menekankan pada pengembangan keterampilan proses sains. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keterlaksanaan pembelajaran, peningkatan keterampilan proses sains siswa, serta respons siswa setelah diterapkannya model creative problem solving berbantuan liveworksheet pada submateri pemisahan campuran sederhana. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah pre-experimental design dengan rancangan one group pretes-posttest design. Subjek penelitian terdiri dari 27 siswa kelas VIII-B di SMP Asa Cendekia. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi observasi, tes dan angket. Instrumen penelitian mencakup lembar obsevasi keterlaksanaan pembelajaran, lembar soal tes, dan lembar angket respons siswa. Data keterlaksanaan pembelajaran dianalisis menggunakan skala Guttman, data keterampilan proses sains dianalisis menggunakan analisis N-Gain dan uji Wicolxon, sedangkan data respons peserta didik dianalisis menggunakan skala Likert. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata keterlaksanaan pembelajaran mencapai 100% pada pertemuan pertama dan 97,2 % pada pertemuan kedua dengan kategori sangat baik. Hasil keterampilan proses sains mendapatkan skor N-Gain siswa mencapai 0,8 yang termasuk dalam kategori tinggi. Selain itu, hasil respons siswa terhadap pembelajaran menggunakan model creative problem solving juga sangat positif, dengan rata-rata persentase sebesar 86%. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan model creative problem solving berbantuan liveworksheet pada submateri pemisahan campuran sederhana efektif dalam meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains siswa. Model ini disarankan untuk diterapkan sebagai alternatif model pembelajaran dalam mata pelajaran IPA karena tidak hanya mampu meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains, tetapi juga mendorong keterlibatan aktif siswa melalui konteks yang relevan dengan kehidupan. 

Science process skills (SPS) are essential skills that need to be taught to students in order to improve the quality of student. Therefore, the learning process should ideally focus on the development of science process skills. This research aims to analyze the implementation of learning, the improvement of students' scientific process skills, and students' responsses after the application of the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) model assisted by Liveworksheet on the topic of simple mixture separation. The type of research used is a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research subjects consisted of 27 students from class VIII-B at SMP Asa Cendekia. Data collection techniques included observation, tests, and questionnaires. Research instruments included a learning implementation observation sheet, test questions, and a student responsse questionnaire. Learning implementation was analyzed using the Guttman scale, scientific process skills data were analyzed using N-Gain analysis and the Wilcoxon test, while students' responsses were analyzed using the Likert scale. The results showed that the average learning implementation reached 100% in the first and 97,2% in second meetings, falling into the very good category. The result N-Gain score of students’ scientific process skills reached 0.8, which is categorized as high. In addition, students’ responsses to learning using the CPS model were also very positive, with an average percentage of 86%. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the application of the Creative Problem Solving model assisted by Liveworksheet on the topic of simple mixture separation is effective in improving students' scientific process skills. This model is recommended as an alternative learning model in science subjects because it not only enhances scientific process skills but also encourages active student engagement through contexts that are relevant to real life.
