Abstract
The objectives of this research were: 1) To compare the creative thinking of Grade-7 students before and after the Creative-Based Learning integrated with Model-Based Learning on the topic of the basic unit of life. 2) To compare the learning achievement in science of Grade-7 students after the Creative-Based Learning integrated with Model-Based Learning on the topic of the basic unit of life with the 75% criterion This study employed a quasi-experimental design with the sample of 40 Grade-7 students who were selected through simple random sampling by drawing lots. The research instruments included lesson plans of Creative-Based Learning integrated with Model-Based Learning, a creative thinking assessment form, and a science achievement test. The data analysis statistics were mean, standard deviation, dependent-sample t-test for comparing pre- and post-test creativity scores, and one-sample t-test for comparing science achievement score against the 75% threshold. The findings revealed that: 1) The students’ creative thinking after the learning management was significantly higher than before the learning management at the .05 level of significance. 2) The students’ learning achievement in science after the learning management was significantly higher than the 75% criterion at the .05 level of significance.
