Physics Learning Devices based on Guided Inquiry with Experiment to Improve Students’ Creativity

Abstract

Abstract In this study, we have developed physics learning devices based on guided inquiry with experiments to improve students’ creativity. Research and development are carried out in several stages starting with preliminary studies to testing. Experts then validate learning tools that have been developed before being implemented to determine their effectiveness in increasing creativity. Validity data was obtained from the appraisal sheet for the appraisal of learning devices that are assessed by experts. The effectiveness data were obtained from the results of creativity tests in the form of tests of verbal, figural, numerical, and procedural creativity. The results of the study show that learning tools are valid and effective in enhancing student creativity. An aspect of procedural creativity was increased higher than other aspects.In addition, students can provide answers with original thoughts using their language based on experiments and the results of discussions that have been conducted.
