Kreasi Musik Ritmis Kohkol untuk Meningkatkan Keterampilan Berpikir Kreatif Siswa Sekolah Dasar

This study was motivated by the low condition of students' creative thinking abilities in learning Arts, Culture and Crafts (SBdP). The utilization of rhythmic music creation using the kohkol tool aims to improve students' creative thinking skills in Arts, Culture and Crafts (SBdP) lesson content. In this study, we used the Class Action (PTK) type which consists of 2 cycles, where planning, implementation, observation and reflection were included to each cycle. A total of 11 male students and 11 female students in class V at SD Negeri Cicadas were the subjects of this research. According to the observations and performance assessments show that rhythmic music creation using the kohkol instrument can improve students' creative thinking abilities in Arts, Culture and Crafts (SBdP) lesson content. It's proven by the escalation of students' learning completeness who can achieve minimum completeness criteria (KKM) scores in all aspects of assessing creative thinking abilities in each cycle. The results of the performance assessment in measuring students' creative thinking abilities who achieved the minimum completeness criteria (KKM) score were 55% and 85% in cycle 1 and cycle 2, respectively. These results indicate that the students' creative thinking abilities was increased by 31%. Thus, the rhythmic music creation using the kohkol instrument can effectively help students improve creative thinking skills.
