The effect of creative problem-solving learning model using geometry transformation book based on Al-Qur’an on students’ van Hiele thinking level and learning outcome

This study aimed at analyzing the differences between Creative Problem Solving
and conventional learning model to students’ van Hiele geometric thinking level and learning
outcome. This study used quasi-experimental design, and this paper focused on the
implementation phase of design research. Research subjects were determined by random
sampling technique, i.e., an experimental class of 12 students and a control class of 11
students. The Geometry Transformation book was developed based on Al-Quran and includes
a discussion on the relationship between geometry concepts and Al-Qur’an. The results of this
study showed that the level of geometric thinking ability of 33.33% of the students in the
experiment class is at level 4, while only 9.09% of the control class is at the same level. The
ANAKOVA test showed that there was a significant difference (P = 0.041 <α = 0.0050) in
cognitive learning result between the experimental class (63.08) and the control class (59.27).
