ABSTRACT
This research was investigated the impact of Numbered Heads Together (NHT) as
a type of cooperative learning to be acted as an endeavor to improve students
scientific creativity and mastery concept in learning global warming. The method
that was used in this experiment was combination of descriptive and pre
experiment with one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample was taken based
on convenient situation (n=19 students) grade 7 in a Private Bilingual School. The
quantitative data was gained through mastery concept test and scientific creativity
test, while qualitative data was gathered trough rubrics and questionnaire. Based
on the analysis of the results, it is shown that students’ scientific creativity
improved in all indicators tested and the normalized gain results for mastery
concept shown 0.59 which categorized as medium improvement.All of the results
are supported with the responseof students towards NHT implementationwhich
showed positive response in all indicators. This research indicated that NHT
implementation in Global Warmingtopic can improve students’scientific creativity
and mastery concept.
Key words: Numbered Heads Together, scientific creativity, mastery concept,
global warming

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.
