Abstract

Currently, learning is not only focused on knowledge aspects but also includes various skills that must be mastered such as critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication. The purpose of this research is to test the implementation of STEM-based physics learning on the topic of Sound Waves in improving students' creative problem solving skill (CPS), as well as analyzing students' creative thinking skills based on the design and products created. The data collection of students' CPS skills using a test technique consisting of descriptive questions that are adjusted to the CPS aspects and the improvement is analyzed with the N-gain value. For students' creative thinking skills in design and products, it is measured using indicators based on the four aspects of Torrance's creativity and then categorized based on the scores obtained. The research method used is quantitative with a one group pre-test-post-test design. The sample used consists of 31 eleventh-grade students from one senior high school in Cimahi. The results of data analysis show an increase in Students' CPS skills in the high, medium and low categories. The average score for students' creative thinking skills in design is 3.02 (75.50%) in the creative category, while the average score for students' creative thinking skills in products is 3.04 (76.00%) in the creative category. This indicates that the Implementation of STEM- based Physics Learning on the topic of Sound Waves can improve high school students' creative problem solving skills, and students' creative thinking skills based on design and products created in creative category.
