Implementation of Problem Based Learning (PBL) Model Based on Local Wisdom of Dalihan Natolu Used by Animation Video to Improve Students' Creative Thinking Skills

Abstract

One of the biology skills needed by students in facing the 21st century is the ability to think creatively. The Problem Based Learning model is very appropriate in fostering creative thinking skills. This study aims to determine the effect of implementing the Problem Based Learning model based on Dalihan Na Tolu local wisdom assisted by animated videos in improving creative thinking skills in Biology. This study applies the Quasi Experiment method with a Nonequivalent Control Group design. The subjects in this study were 36 students of class XA SMA Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar in the 2023/2024 academic year. The creative thinking skills in Biology in the experimental class with the Problem Based Learning Model based on Dalihan Na Tolu local wisdom assisted by animated videos were higher and better than the control class with the conventional learning model. With an average posttest of the experimental class of 91.04 and a maximum value of 100 after treatment. While the average posttest result of the control class was 49.83 with a maximum value of 69.75 after treatment. The creative thinking ability of Biology in the experimental class with the Problem Base Learning Model based on Dalihan Na Tolu local wisdom assisted by animated videos is higher and better than the control class with the conventional learning model. With an average posttest of the experimental class of 91.04 and a maximum value of 100 after treatment. While the average posttest result of the control class was 49.83 with a maximum value of 69.75 after treatment. The results of the study showed that the Problem Base Learning model based on Dalihan Na Tolu local wisdom assisted by animated videos had a significant effect on improving students' creative thinking abilities.
