Abstract

The research aimed to explore students’ creative thinking skills on biotechnology material through the effectiveness of Project Learning STEM E-Module provided with formative assessments (PjBL-STEM-AF). The research was carried out by applying a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pretest-posttest. The experimental group received learning on the application E-Modules PjBL-STEM-AF, while the control group received conventional learning treatment. The test instrument in this study was in the form of a Biotechnology Creative Thinking Ability Test, which consisted of 8 written essay questions with a reliability of 0.87. Quantitative data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality, and homogeneity tests, different tests, and N-gain. The results of the study showed that the student’s creative thinking skills in the PjBL-STEM-AF class were significantly better than the conventional class. In addition, the experimental class obtained a medium N-gain category, while the control class was in the low category. Therefore, the experimental class was effective in training students’ creative thinking skills. In terms of creative thinking indicators, for the experimental and control groups, the highest increase was obtained in the fluency indicator, while the lowest was in the originality and elaboration indicators. Recommendations for further research are to add “Art” aspects to the STEM approach so that students’ creative thinking skills can be further improved.
