The Development of Students’ Creative Problem-Solving Skills Through Learning Model in Gamification Environment Together with Cartoon Animation Media

The aims of this study were to synthesize and evaluate the learning model in gamification environment together with cartoon animation media to promote students’ creative problem-solving skills. This study was divided into three phases, (i) synthesized and evaluated the appropriateness of learning model (ii) developed cartoon animation and (iii) assessed creative problem-solving skills. The results show that the learning model consisted of three main components: teaching component, gamification environment, and activities to promote creative problem-solving. The overall suitability assessment of the developed learning model was averaged at 4.69 (SD = 0.46) out of 5, being at the most appropriate level and the scores of the students’ post-learn creative problem-solving skills assessment were significantly higher than the criteria at the level .05. These results lead to a conclusion that the learning model in gamification environment together with cartoon animation media can significantly promote students’ creative problem-solving skills and can be applied to develop desired learners’ achievements and skills.
