Implementation of the Investigation through Cooperative Problem-solving (ITCPS) Learning Model to Improve Students' Problem-solving and Collaboration Skills
Abstract
This study aims to enhance students' problem-solving and collaboration skills by implementing the investigation through a cooperative problem-solving (ITCPS) learning model in class VIII of a Junior High School in Surakarta, Central Java, Indonesia. The type of research employed is classroom-based action research, which is conducted in two cycles, each comprising four stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The study included 32 research subjects. The data collection techniques were observation and written tests. The gathered data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach. Results showed that applying the ITCPS learning model improves problem-solving and collaboration skills. Problem-solving skills, as indicated by students' average scores, increased from 73.84% in Cycle 1 to 89.41% in Cycle 2. Meanwhile, as seen from students' average scores, collaboration skills also increased from 60.09% in Cycle 1 to 86.38% in Cycle 2. The results in Cycle 2 have met the predetermined target for problem-solving and collaboration skills. This study concludes that the ITCPS learning model can enhance students' problem-solving and collaboration skills through problem formulation, investigation, discussion, data collection, group conclusion, explanation of the discussion results, and reflection on learning activities.
