ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini mengungkap efek dari Numbered Heads Together (NHT) yang
merupakan salah satu tipe dari cooperative learning sebagai sebuah usaha untuk
meningkatan kreatifitas ilmiah dan penguasaan konsep siswa dalam topik pemanasan global. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah gabungan
antara deskriptif dan pre-experiment dengan desain one group pretest-posttest.
Sampel diambil menggunakan convenient sampling di sebuah sekolah bilingual
kelas 7 dengan (n=19 Siswa). Data kuantitatif didapat dari test penguasaan konsep dan kreativitas ilmiah, sedangkan data kualitatif didapatkan melalui rubric dan Kuisioner. Hasil analisis menunjukkan kreativitas ilmiah siswa mengalami peningkatan di seluruh indicator, begitu pula dengan penguasaan konsep
menunjukkan hasil normalized gain sebesar 0.59 yang dikategorikan seabagai
peningkatan yang medium. Seluruh hasil pun didukung dengan respons positif
dari siswa selama pengimplementasian NHT. Maka, penelitian ini
mengindikasikan bahwa pengimplementasian NHT pada topic pemansan global dapat meningkatakan kemampuan kreativitas ilmiah dan penguasaan konsep pada siswa.
