Development of a Choreography-Based Learning Model Focused on Independent Learning

This study aims to develop a choreography-based learning model focused on independent learning to enhance students' creativity. The learning model is designed to provide students with the freedom to explore their own dance ideas and concepts with minimal intervention from instructors. The research employs a Research and Development (R&D) method with a mixed-methods approach, combining both qualitative and quantitative methods. The model development process involves several stages, including needs analysis, model design, validity testing, model revision, and implementation. The research findings indicate that this learning model is effective in enhancing students' creativity. Creativity measurement is conducted using the Torrance Creativity Test, which reveals a significant increase in creativity scores among students who use this model compared to the control group. Furthermore, feedback from students and instructors suggests that this model can increase student motivation and engagement in the learning process. It is hoped that these findings will contribute positively to the development of learning methods in the field of dance and can be adapted for other disciplines that require creative approaches in their learning processes.
