This study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of a training program based on a creative problem solving model (CPS) in developing mathematical power for 8th grade students in light of their mathematics achievement. To achieve this goal, a training program was designed to focus on a set of mathematical ideas and skills in an algebra quantities unit using creative problem solving strategies. The researcher designed a test to measure mathematics power. The sample of the study consisted of 135 female eight grade students randomly selected from Dhahra governorate, which was divided into experimental and control groups. For testing the study hypothesis, data were  analyzed by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA 2X3) in which eta squared was obtained. The study revealed a significant difference (α=0.05) in the means between the experimental and control groups in the mathematical power test in favor of the experimental group.

This research aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the creative problem-solving learning model in 8th grade of mathematics learning. The assessment of the effectiveness of learning model was reviewed based on three aspects, namely students’ activities, students’ responses to the learning model, and students’ learning outcomes. The type and approach, which used in this research, were quantitative descriptive with the research subjects of 8th-C class; moreover, the subjects consisted of 32 students. The instruments used to assess the effectiveness of the learning model were the students’ activity observation sheet, students’ responses questionnaire, and test sheet. The results of the research showed that the students’ activities were categorized as very good, in which the percentages were 84.38%. The students’ responses were categorized as very good with a percentage of 82.53%. The students’ learning outcomes in a classical manner could be said as complete with the completeness of 71.88%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the implementation of creative problem-solving learning model in mathematics learning can be said as effective.

Background: Interpersonal skills enable people to develop positive and effective relationships with each other. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of training on interpersonal skills in female teenagers. Methods: By an interventional study with pretest-posttest design, subjects were randomly divided into case and control groups. The target population consisted of all female teenagers in Ilam in 2016 - 2017. The 60 participants, included by multi-stage cluster sampling, were randomly assigned into two experimental (n = 30) and control groups (n = 30). The short 32-item version of inventory of interpersonal problems (IIP) was used to collection of data, which was completed by all subjects at the pre-test stage. The interventional group received eight sessions of the life skills training program, and two experimental and control groups received the post-test. Data were analyzed by two-variable variance of analysis via SPSS software version 20. Results: The results showed a significant difference between the interpersonal skills scores of both interventional and control groups in the post-test stage at the significance level (P < 0.01). This means that training enhances the interpersonal skills of female teenagers. Conclusions: The training program can be effective for interpersonal skills.

Tujuan Penulisan ini untuk mendeskripsikan model pembelajaran inkuiri dalam Pembelajaran Ekstrakulikuler Pramuka sebagai inovasi dalam penyampaian ketika ekstrakulikuler dilaksanakan. Penulisan ini di latar belakangi karna ketika penyampaian materi kepramukaan itu peserta didik merasa bosan dan juga jenuh, sehingga menghasilkan ekstrakulikuler pramuka itu tidak di sukai. Maka dari itu perlu adanya inovasi dalam pembelajaran nya, yaitu dengan Model Pembelajaran Inkuiri berbasis Creative Problem Solving. Model Pembelajaran Inkuiri merupakan mengatakan model pembelajaran inkuiri berarti suatu rangkaian kegiatan belajar yang melibatkan secara maksimal seluruh kemampuan siswa untuk mencari dan menyelidiki secara sistematis, kritis, logis, analitis, sehingga mereka dapat merumuskan sendiri penemuannya dengan penuh percaya diri. Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan ini yaitu dengan studi kepustakaan dengan mengkaji beberapa literatur untuk dianalisis dan dibuat kesimpulan. Hasil penulisan menunjukkan bahwa penerapan model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing berbasis Creative Problem Solving sebagai inovasi pembelajaran yang dapat menjadi solusi dari permasalahan yang ditemui dalam proses Latihan Ekstrakulikuler Kepramukaan di Sekolah. Model Pembelajaran Inkuiri Terbimbing diterapkan kepada siswa di Sekolah Menengah Pertama dengan beberapa langkah antara lain; siswa melalukan suatu percobaan materi yang telah di sampaikan, setelah itu mempraktikan melalui dengan kreativitas mereka, selanjutnya melakukan proses evaluasi dan seleksi untuk menemukan solusi dari masalah yang ditemukan.

This study investigated the effects of problem-solving method of teaching on secondary school students achievement and retention in Social Studies. The study adopted the quasi-experimental, pre-test, post-test, control group design. The sample for the study consisted of 240 Junior Secondary School Class II students randomly selected from six secondary schools in Ekiti State, Nigeria. The instrument used for the study is the Social Studies Achievement Test (SSAT) designed and validated by the researcher. Section A of the instrument consisted of the bio-data of the respondents while section B was made up of 40 multiple-choice items designed to measure the students achievement and retention in Social Studies. Four hypotheses were raised and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The data were analyzed using t-test and ANCOVA statistical tools. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the achievement mean scores of students in the experimental and control groups. There is a significant difference between the pre-test mean scores and achievement mean scores of students in the experimental and control groups. There is a significant difference between the retention mean scores of students in the experimental and control groups. There is a significant difference between the achievement mean scores and the retention mean scores of students in the experimental and control groups. It was discovered in the study that problem-solving method is more effective than conventional lecture method in improving students achievement in Social Studies. It was therefore recommended that teachers should be innovative in handling their lessons by relating them to the day-to-day life of students in such a way that the students will be challenged to put the lessons to practice as much as possible. Government should also emphasize the use of problem-solving method to teach Social Studies in secondary schools.
