Building Creativity through Collaborative Learning
Abstract: Creativity is an important dimension of life, both individually and socially because the existence and progress of a social unit is very dependent on the creativity of the individual. Thus, the formation of individual creative students carries an important role. Efforts to form creative students need the right strategy. This study aims to compare the level of student creativity in collaborative learning with conventional learning. This study uses quasi-experimental design with the type of pretest-posttest design. This research was conducted on 80 students of Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program, Teaching and Education Faculty, Universitas PGRI Ronggolawe Tuban in the Professional Education course. The results of this study indicate there are differences in the level of creativity of students who are taught collaboratively with those who are taught conventionally. Students who were collaboratively taught showed significantly higher levels of creativity than those who were taught conventionally.
