Inculcating collaborative problem
solving (hereinafter CPS) skills to
help develop students' knowledge, especially for problem solving (PS) involved
in the subject of physics is of utmost importance in the 21st century. It was
on such grounds that in the present study, physics PS learning was innovated by
engaging students’ generated animation within the recent CPS learning framework
process. Next, the
effectiveness of the steps in this innovative approach, which was developed as
Lensmation CPS Module, in inculcating CPS skills was determined. Seventy respondents
were involved in this quasi-experimental study, in which one treatment group
was exposed to the module whereas the control group practised the conventional
PS learning. In the course of
completing their PS tasks, the students who were involved in this study had
their CPS skills assessed using the CPS Proficiency Rubrics. MANOVA analysis
revealed significant effects on CPS skills between the two groups. It is concluded that
the innovative PS learning approach which tapped into students’ ICT literacy in
physics CPS learning was effective in inculcating CPS skills among the
students.
