Islamic Based Learning Development Using the 5R through Robotics Activities to Promote the Ability toward Solve Problems Creatively of 6th Primary School Students

Abstract

This research was a quasi - experimental research. The objectives were: 1) to develop the Islamic based learning by using the 5R technique through Robotics activities to promote creative problem-solving ability for Grade 6 students; 2) to compare the creative problem-solving ability of Grade 6 students classified by the Islamic based learning process using the 5R technique and gender when controlling for science and mathematics scores; and 3) to study the satisfaction with the Islamic thinking learning process using the 5R technique. The target group was Grade 6 students of Chumchonbantonson School, a classroom, totally 31 students, in the academic year 2023, by purposive sampling. The research instruments consisted of a learning management plan, a creative problem-solving ability test, and a satisfaction questionnaire with the Islamic based learning. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, mean ( ), standard deviation (S.D.), and multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). The results of the research found that the effectiveness of the learning management plan using the 5R technique from the experiment with a medium-sized group, the efficiency value (E1/E2) was equal to 83.20/85.50, which was higher than the standard criteria of 80/80. The comparison of creative problem-solving ability of Grade 6 students classified by Islamic based learning using 5R technique and gender, when controlling for science and mathematics scores, the Fwils’ lambda test value was equal to 23.750, p = .000 < .05, which was significantly different at .05. Overall, the satisfaction with the Islamic based learning using 5R technique was at the most satisfactory level (  = 4.55 S.D. = 0.77)
