Abstract


This study aimed to develop and evaluate the validity and practicality of the Scientific Creativity Project-Based Learning (SCPjBL) model as an instructional approach that integrates scientific creativity, collaborative inquiry, reflective learning, and character-oriented project engagement. This study employed a research and development design involving 180 undergraduate students from two higher education institutions in Indonesia. Data were collected through expert validation sheets, observation instruments, student response questionnaires, and scientific creativity assessments. Three expert validators and four classroom observers participated in the evaluation process. The results showed that the SCPjBL model obtained a validity percentage of 98.00%, while the supporting learning tools and student response questionnaires achieved 97.00% and 99.00%, respectively. Reliability analysis indicated good internal consistency, with Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.85. Classroom observations also showed that the model could be implemented practically in project-based learning activities. These findings indicate that SCPjBL is a valid, reliable, and practical instructional model for promoting scientific creativity, collaborative inquiry, reflective learning, and character-oriented problem-solving in higher education.
