Using Discovery Learning to Encourage Creative Thinking

Abstract

Creative thinking ability development is needed to be implemented by every educator including lecturers to their students. Therefore, they need to seriously act and design their learning process. One of the ways to develop student's creative thinking is using discovery learning model. This research is conducted in physics education study program in 2016 with students who took learning and teaching class as research subject. From the research analysis result and discussion, it can be concluded that discovery learning model can encourage students' creative thinking ability in learning and teaching strategy subject.

Boosting EFL Learners Critical Thinking through Guided Discovery: a Classroom- Oriented Research on First-Year Master Students

“…For them, this model activates the students' thought processes. Furthermore, Rahman (2017) noticed that the use of discovery learning provides learners with the possibilities to develop creative thinking abilities.…”

“…Various studies conducted on learners' critical thinking skills revealed that higher-order thinking required the teachers' careful planning and consideration (Fahmi et al, 2019;Gibson, 2012;Shirkhani & Fahmi, 2011;Tiwari et al, 2006). In this context, Rahman (2017) and Wahyudi, Rukmini and Bharati (2019) confirmed that discovery leaning is operative to stimulate the students' critical thinking and creativity. Likewise, Kusumawardani, Malya and Faizah 2019claimed that guided discovery learning-based activities promote learners' critical thinking skills.…”

Penerapan Metode Discovery Learning Dengan Pendekatan Adiksimba Untuk Meningkatkan Ketrampilan Bertanya dan Hasil Belajar Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan

“…Pada beberapa penelitian, peningkatan kemampuan bertanya siswa terbukti berkorelasi secara positif terhadap hasil belajar siswa (Nurazizah et al, 2019;Priyanto et al, 2018;Sastra et al, 2020). Strategi pembelajaran AdikSimba ini merupakan model pembelajaran Discovery Learning, dimana siswa dibimbing untuk memahami konsep, arti, dan hubungan melalui proses intuitif untuk mencapai suatu kesimpulan (Rahman, 2017). Dengan mengacu pada hal-hal tersebut, peneliti hendak mengetahui efektivitas penerapan metode Discovery Learning di SMP Negeri 5 Melaya dalam mengatasi permasalahanpermasalahan proses pembelajaran SMP Negeri 5 Melaya yang dievaluasi melalui peningkatan ketrampilan dan hasil belajar siswa.…”
