The Development of Flipbook Marker-Based High-Scope Learning Models to Improve Children's Creative Thinking Skills

Abstract

Creative thinking is part of problem-solving skills that are very important for early childhood. However, improving children's creative thinking skills requires a fun model so that the learning model's quality dramatically affects the success of their learning achievements. This study aims to develop a flipbook marker-based high-scope learning model to improve children's creative thinking skills. This research was conducted in seven stages using Borg and Goll development model. The seven stages include 1) potential and problems, 2) collecting data, 3) product design, 4) design validation, 5) design revision, 6) product trial, and 7) product revision. The results of this study indicate that (1) material expert validity test 92 with an outstanding category, and model expert validity test 92.14 with an excellent category. (2) average child response 93.01%, (3) average teacher response 92.78% with a convenient category. (4) the value of the Paired Samples T Test test obtained a significance value of 0.000 <0.05, so the hypothesis is accepted. Therefore, the flipbook marker-based high-scope learning model effectively improves children's creative thinking skills.
