Development of Creative Thinking Skills Test Instruments on Kinematics Materials for SMA/MA Students in Medan

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of creative thinking skills test on kinematics material. Research participants were students of class X SMA Al Azhar Medan and class X students of MAN 1 Medan who had received kinematics material. The type of research used is research and development (R&D). The research carried out refers to product development in the form of a creative thinking skill test instrument. Before the test instrument for creative thinking skills was tested on students, the test was validated first. The product development subjects consist of content or material experts, instrument experts, and linguists. The data analysis technique used in this research is descriptive analysis technique. From the results of small group and large group trials, 22 test instruments on kinematics material were declared valid. The conclusion obtained after the research is the characteristics of the creative thinking skills test instrument developed were declared valid with high interpretation, reliable with very high interpretation, and the level of difficulty and discriminatory power was classified as good; the research participants' creative thinking skills were quite adequate.
