Implementation of a Problem-finding and Problem-solving Oriented Engineering Experiment Course Focused on the Acquisition of the Fundamentals of the Experimental Method

In response to Bulterman-Bos (2008) , this article discusses three kinds of research needed in education: problem-finding research, which helps frame good research questions; problem-solving research, which helps illuminate educational problems; and translational work, which transforms the findings of research into tools that practitioners and policy makers need. Clinical research is most important as a form of problem-finding study. Although it is best carried on in “ed schools,” other kinds of education research are best done in other faculties. For this reason, education research should be a distributed activity, encouraged across all the faculties of research universities.

Preliminary Research

A preliminary research related to students' difficulties investigated that abstract atomic motion and counting material are the hardest materials to understand by the students. Therefore, to overcome this, a study on multimedia used in material of phase diagram was conducted. The research design was a quasi-experimental method done with pre-test and post-test to collect the data. The results revealed that the use of animation helped students to understand the material and supported them in doing their learning activity well.

Problems always exist throughout human life, including early childhood. Early childhood are required to be able to solve each of their own problem properly. Currently there are still children who have not been able to solve the problems they face without the help of teachers or other adults. To overcome this problem, researchers proposes nature-based learning to develop children's problem solving abilities. This learning offers children as active learners who are free to play and explore so that they will gain their own experience and knowledge directly. The experience and knowledge gained is used by children to overcome the problems they encounter. The effectiveness of nature-based learning was evaluated by designing learning activities carried out by the quasi-experimental method for 36 children. Two variables: nature-based learning and problem solving abilities. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the problem solving ability of early childhood by 86.11%.
