Overview

Quasi-experimental analysis shows Problem-Based Learning enhances critical thinking more than Scramble model in fifth graders, indicating effective teaching strategies for Integrated Science and Social Studies.

Key Points

  • The Problem-Based Learning model significantly improves students' critical thinking skills compared to the Scramble model, leading to better educational outcomes.
  • Mann-Whitney U test revealed a significance value of 0.004, indicating a strong statistical difference between the two learning models.
  • A quasi-experimental design was employed with 20 students, affirming the robustness of the findings in comparing the learning approaches.
  • These results highlight the importance of early intervention in teaching critical thinking through engaging methods like Problem-Based Learning.
