Abstract

One learning model that can actively involve students and increase student creativity is Case Based Learning (CBL). The purpose of this study was to identify differences in students’ creativity and thinking skills between the application of case-based learning and conventional learning in vector and rodent control courses. This research was conducted at the Department of Public Health, Jambi University on fifth semester students interested in environmental health with a total of 37 students. The research design is in the form of a pseudo-experimental class involving an experimental class and a control class. The instruments used are test sheets with indicators to measure thinking skills and creativity, communication skills test sheets and assessment report sheets. Data was collected twice through pre-test and post-test. Data processing and analysis using Paired Sample T-Test. The results showed that most students were still less active during lectures using conventional methods / lectures, which was as many as 15 people (40.5%). Students only pay attention, are silent and there are no questions or comments related to the lecture material submitted. The results of statistical tests show that the p value is 0.000, the p value is < α (0.05), which means there are differences in student learning outcomes using conventional methods / lectures with the CBL method. This means that there is an influence of providing CBL learning methods on the thinking skills (learning outcomes) of students in semester V interested in environmental health majoring in public health sciences FKIK Jambi University in vector and rodent control courses. The conclusion of this study is that the application of case-based learning models is expected to increase students’ creativity and thinking skills and hone communication skills by being actively involved in complex case-study-based learning processes.
