Abstract

The study aims to investigate the influence of the differentiation-based Problem Based Learning (PBL) model on students' creative thinking skills in learning Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) material "Magnet, A Magical Object" in grade IV A UPTD SD Negeri Naikoten 2.

After being given treatment, the average posttest score of the experimental class was 85.68 and the control class was 74.30. The normality, homogeneity and linearity test shows normal, homogeneous and linear distributed data. The T test performed showed a significance of 0.00 a value smaller than 0.05. Therefore, it was concluded that there was a significant influence of the differentiation-based Problem Based Learning model on the creative thinking ability of students in learning science magnet material in the IVA UPTD class of SD Negeri Naikoten 2.
