PENGEMBANGAN PERANGKAT PEMBELAJARAN PROJECT BASED ENTREPRENEURIAL SCIENCE THINKING (PBEST) UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN BERPIKIR KREATIF SISWA SMP

DEVELOPMENT OF PROJECT-BASED ENTREPRENEURIAL SCIENCE THINKING (PBEST) LEARNING TOOLS TO IMPROVE CREATIVE THINKING SKILLS OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

Pendidikan di era revolusi industri 4.0 dituntut mampu membekali siswa dengan keterampilan abad ke-21, khususnya kreativitas, yang belum berkembang optimal akibat pembelajaran IPA yang masih berorientasi pada hafalan dan kurang kontekstual. Model PBEST mengintegrasikan pembelajaran berbasis proyek dengan pemikiran sains kewirausahaan sehingga siswa tidak hanya memahami konsep ilmiah tetapi juga mampu menghasilkan produk bernilai ekonomis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menghasilkan perangkat pembelajaran berbasis Project Based Entrepreneurial Science Thinking (PBEST) yang valid, praktis, dan efektif dalam meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa SMP. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan (Research and Development) menggunakan model ADDIE yang meliputi tahap analisis, desain, pengembangan, implementasi, dan evaluasi. Sasaran penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VIII SMP Negeri 1 Bojonegoro yang mengikuti pembelajaran materi nutrien pada semester 1 tahun akademik 2025/2026. Perangkat yang dikembangkan meliputi modul ajar, lembar kerja peserta didik (LKPD), dan instrumen tes keterampilan berpikir kreatif dengan indikator fluency, flexibility, originality, dan elaboration. Data diperoleh melalui teknik validasi, observasi, tes, serta angket. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perangkat pembelajaran berbasis model PBEST memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis berdasarkan keterlaksanaan pembelajaran yang tinggi, serta efektif ditunjukkan oleh peningkatan signifikan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa. Selain itu, siswa memberikan respon positif terhadap pembelajaran karena kegiatan proyek kontekstual dan bermakna. Dengan demikian, perangkat pembelajaran PBEST dapat digunakan sebagai alternatif pembelajaran IPA untuk meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir kreatif siswa SMP.

Education in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 is required to equip students with 21st-century skills, especially creativity, which has not yet developed optimally due to science learning that is still oriented towards memorisation and lacks context. The PBEST model integrates project-based learning with entrepreneurial science thinking so that students not only understand scientific concepts but are also able to produce products with economic value. This study aims to produce a Project-Based Entrepreneurial Science Thinking (PBEST)-based learning tool that is valid, practical, and effective in improving the creative thinking skills of junior high school students. This research is a development research (R&D) using the ADDIE model, which includes the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The target of this study was the eighth-grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Bojonegoro who participated in nutrient learning in the first semester of the 2025/2026 academic year. The tools developed include teaching modules, student worksheets (LKPD), and creative thinking skills test instruments with indicators of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Data were obtained through validation techniques, observations, tests, and questionnaires. The results of the study indicate that the PBEST-based learning device meets the criteria of validity, practicality based on high learning implementation, and effectiveness, as demonstrated by a significant increase in students' creative thinking skills. Furthermore, students responded positively to the learning because the project activities were contextual and meaningful. Therefore, the PBEST learning device can be used as an alternative science learning tool to improve junior high school students' creative thinking skills.
