The effect of problem based learning STEM (PBL STEM) on students' systems thinking skills on global warming material

Syafah Anggriani Saputri, Ahmad Suryadi

Abstract


This study explores the effect of PBL-STEM on students' systems thinking skills in global warming topics. This research is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design. This study was conducted in one of the public high schools in South Tangerang. The participants involved were 72 students. In the experimental class, students learned with PBL-STEM, and the control group used conventional learning. The system thinking instrument was developed using 24 tested multiple-choice questions with a reliability of 0.83. The results showed that PBL-STEM significantly affected students' systems thinking skills (p < 0.05). The experimental class students' systems thinking was higher than the control class' systems thinking. Furthermore, systems thinking skills in the experimental class increased, but the highest value was at level 1 with the essential difficulty; in the control class levels 1 and 2, there was a more significant increase. This study can be continued for future research investigating the effect of PBL STEM on systems thinking skills in different contexts.
