“…In addition, curriculum explanations of field trips and arts activities include objectives related to the development of problem-solving skills. In their study, Gur and Kocak (2018) examined the effects of the thinking curriculum they created on the social problem-solving skills of 5-6-year-old children and found a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores of the experimental group and the control group. They stated that the preschool education that the control group received during the 5-month period in which the curriculum was implemented had a positive effect on the children's social problem-solving skills.…”

“…Hence, constructing scientifi c reasoning habits in problem-solving skills is needed to improve the three aspects of problem solving skills (Becerra-Labra, Gras-Marti, & Torregrosa, 2012;Wiyarsi & Çalik, 2019;Çalik & Karataş, 2019). T h i s r e s e a r c h s u g g e s t s t h a t constructing PsCT' problem-solving skills is required in order to fulfi l a successful 21 st century learning system, still the thinking training could develop problem-solving skills (Gur & Kocak, 2017). Moreover, the process in preparing preservice teachers should involve them in more number of cases in order to generate and enhance their problem-solving skills as suggested by Bars and Oral (2017).…”

“…Therefore, enhancing problem-solving skills should be emphasized in chemistry learning both in high school and teacher education. They should develop students' thinking concerning real-life activities since it was promising to promote students' problem-solving skills (Gur & Kocak, 2017).…”

Problem-solving skill is an important component in achieving a successful 21st-century learning system. This research aimed to explore Pre-service Chemistry Teacher’ (PsCT’) problem-solving skill after CBL (Context-based learning) implementation with vocational case on petroleum and polymer topic of chemistry. A descriptive study on the CBL implementation was adopted in this research. The study focused on the exploration of PsCT’ problem-solving skill. Through convenient sampling technique, the sample covered a total of 34 PsCT (10 males and 24 females) who enrolled in vocational chemistry course were selected in this study. The data of PsCT’ problem-solving skill were collected through Rubric for Problem-solving skill (RPSS). There were four aspects of problem-solving skill used in this research, namely problems identification skills, information collection skills, skills to provide possible solution, and skills of communicating the possible solution. These data were analysed according to descriptive quantity and one-way ANOVA technique. Three open-ended questions were used to explore PsCT’s view about the relevance, usefulness, and effectiveness of the CBL implementation. There was a significant difference on PsCT’ problems solving skills among petroleum and polymer topic. The result of this study indicated that PsCT’ problem-solving skill still in sufficient category. Hence, these skills should be improved especially on the skills to analyse the problem comprehensively and make an appropriate conclusion. The PsCT have positive view toward CBL implementation about the relevance, usefulness, and effectiveness. The implementation of CBL with vocational case is promising since it could improve PsCT’ problem-solving skills.

Purpose: This study aimed to discuss college students' creative mathematical thinking in open-ended problem solving. In particular, this study would attempt to characterize the differences in students' creative mathematical thinking skills based on cognitive styles. Research Method: This study employed a descriptive qualitative design. The population of this study consisted of 105 pre-service elementary school teachers who were enrolled in the fifth semester classes at Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar. Open-ended problem solving sheets and interview guidelines were developed as the instruments to measure the students' creative mathematical thinking. Meanwhile, to group students based on their cognitive styles, Group Embedded Figure Test (GEFT) was conducted. The students were categorized into field independent (FI) and field dependent (FD) students. Findings: In general, the results reported that both the FI and FD students could perform all the aspects of creative mathematical thinking (flexibility and fluency) in solving open-ended problems. However, unlike the FD students, the FI students were able to generate more various and unique ideas (more flexible) because they possessed higher spatial reasoning skills. On the other hand, despite mistakes in calculation, the FD students always did an evaluation quickly and fix the answers as soon as possible (fluency).
