Abstract

Cabaran semasa dalam sistem pendidikan Malaysia adalah untuk menyediakan pendidikan berkualiti yang mampu menghasilkan modal insan bertaraf dunia dan mempunyai kemahiran-kemahiran kritikal alaf ke-21. Pada masa yang sama, PPPM 2013-2025 turut menggalakkan rakyat Malaysia agar terlibat dengan bidang Sains, Teknologi, Kejuruteraan dan Matematik (STEM) kerana sesungguhnya kemajuan teknologi dan pembangunan ekonomi masyarakat hari ini didorong oleh STEM. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti kesan penggunaan pendekatan Pembelajaran Integrasi STEM Berkontekskan Sains Forensik (PISTEM Forensik) terhadap perolehan kreativiti saintifik dalam kalangan murid tingkatan empat, dan kesannya berdasarkan jantina. Kajian ini berbentuk eksperimen kuasi yang melibatkan 67 orang murid tingkatan empat (31 perempuan dan 36 lelaki) daripada dua buah sekolah berlainan. Pengumpulan data telah dijalankan melalui Ujian Kreativiti Saintifik yang diberi kepada kedua-dua kumpulan murid yang terlibat. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan pada kreativiti saintifik murid yang mengikuti pendekatan PISTEM Forensik pada aras p<.05. Implikasi kajian ini kepada sekolah adalah penambahbaikan dalam penerapan kemahiran kreativiti saintifik yang berkesan terhadap para pelajar. Kesimpulannya, pendekatan PISTEM Forensik dapat meningkatkan perolehan kreativiti saintifik murid sekolah menengah.Kata kunci: Pembelajaran Integrasi STEM, Sains Forensik, Kreativiti Saintifik The current challenge in Malaysia's education system is to provide quality education capable of producing world-class human capital and possessing 21st century critical skills. At the same time, PPPM 2013-2025 also encourages Malaysians to engage with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) field as indeed the technological advances and economic development of the society today are driven by STEM. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the use of STEM Integration Learning Approach for Forensic Science (PISTEM Forensik) on the acquisition of scientific creativity among form four students, and its effects based on gender. This study is a quasi-experimental study involving 67 form four students (31 female and 36 male) from two different schools. Data collection was carried out through the Hu & Adey Scientific Creativity Test which was given to both groups of students involved. The findings show that there is a significant difference in the student's scientific creativity following the PISTEM Forensik Approach at the level of p <.05. The implication of this study to schools is an improvement in the application of effective scientific creativity skills to students. In conclusion, the PISTEM Forensik Approach can enhance the acquisition of scientific creativity of high school students.Keywords: STEM Integration Learning, Forensic Science, Scientific Creativity
