Differences in Reflective Thinking Ability Between Creative Problem Solving and Discovery Learning Models Based on Gender

Abstract

This study aims to see the differences in students' mathematical reflective thinking ability between students which is taught with the Creative Problem Solving learning model and the Discovery Learning learning model if it is viewed from gender. The Data Analysis of research result used two-way Anova to see the effect of gender and learning models on students' mathematical reflective thinking ability. After finding the effect of Gender and the learning model,the advanced test of post-Anova by using the Scheffe’ method. The results are as the following : There is Gender influence on students' mathematical reflective thinking ability, there is an influence of the learning model on students' mathematical reflective thinking ability, there is no interaction between Gender and learning models on students' mathematical reflective thinking ability and post-Anova test with Scheffe’'s method, the results show that there are differences in mathematical reflective thinking ability between the Creative Problem Solving model and the Discovery Learning model.
