Abstract

Problem-solving skills are one of the skills that pre-service physics teachers must possess in this century as prospective professional physics teachers. Therefore, one way that can be done to practice problem-solving skills is by providing e-Worksheets based on Blended Problem-Based Learning (e-WB-PBL) model. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of using e-WB-PBL in improving problem-solving skills. This study was carried out as part of Siliwangi University’s physics education study program for pre-service physics teachers taking mechanics courses for the 2022/2023 academic year. This study uses mixed methods with a sequential explanatory design (two groups pretest-posttest). The sample was determined by purposive sampling with a full selection of 85 pre-service physics teachers. The control class consisted of 43 pre-service physics teachers, and the experimental class consisted of 42 pre-service physics teachers. The control class applies Discovery Learning (DL) learning, while the practical course applies Blended Problem-Based Learning (B-PBL). Statistical tests were used to analyze the data that were acquired, including N-Gain, to determine the improvement in problem-solving skills after using e-WB-PBL; the effectiveness of e-WB-PBL was determined by calculating the effect size, and the effect of e-WB-PBL was determined based on the results of the Mann Whitney test. The results of the N-Gain analysis show that the improvement in the problem skills of the experimental class is more significant than that of the control class, which is 0.9 in the "high" category. The results of the effect size calculation stated that e-WB-PBL was "very effective" in improving problem-solving skills, with a value of 1 in the "huge" category. The results of the Mann-Whitney test stated significant differences in the problem-solving abilities of the control class and the experimental style, with the improvement in the practical class’s problem-solving skills being better than the control class. Based on the three results of the analysis, using e-WB-PBL is very influential and effective in improving problem-solving skills.
