Animation with problem-based learning to improve student higherorder thinking skills

Summary/Abstract: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of using interactive media based on 3 Dimension (3D) animation integrated with problem-based learning to enhance Higher-Order thinking skills in science classes for fifth-grade elementary school students. The research used a quantitative methodology with a quasi-experimental design to review the effectiveness of 3Dbased animated media in quantity to improve elementary school students' higher-order thinking skills. The author selected 104 students as samples. Data from this study were collected through pretest and posttest techniques. The results indicated that learning with 3D-based animated media was effective with a value of sig = 0.00, which is smaller than = 0.05. It means that the results of the posttest in the experimental class were different from the control class. In addition to implementing effective 3Dbased animated media, it also affected the students' higher-order thinking skills with an average of 83.87%. In conclusion, problem-based learning integrated with interactive media effectively improves students' higher-order thinking skills. This study contributes can broaden the insights of elementary school teachers to be able to apply 3D animation technology in classroom learning.
