Abstract

Research has been carried out that aims to investigate the effect of the Biology laboratory activities model based on creative research projects on high school students' creative disposition and creative thinking skills. The study used an experimental method on as many as 66 high school students in class X MTPA at one of the senior high schools in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. A total of 32 students were grouped as the experimental class and 34 students in the control class. The Experimental class students learn with a Biology laboratory work model based on a creative research project and a control class with a verification laboratory work model. The research data were collected using a creative disposition questionnaire and a biological creative thinking skill test. The results showed that the creative research project-based laboratory work was more evocative and significantly different from the creative biological disposition than the verification laboratory work. This laboratory work model is also better and significantly different in improving creative thinking skills than verified laboratory work. The research concludes that creative disposition and creative thinking skills can be improved through a research project-based laboratory work model. Based on these results, it is recommended for high school biology teachers to apply it in learning to foster students' scientific creativity. © 2022 American Institute of Physics Inc..
