摘要：This study aimed to examine the effect of interactive multimedia on problemsolving skills based on gender.The sample was chemistry education students in IKIP Mataram that consisted of 10 males and females'students each.This study was pre-experimental research with a pretest-posttest one group design.Data collection was obtained by tests and interviews.The test of the problem-solving,in the form of the essay,was divided into three types,namely conceptual,algorithm,and conceptual-algorithm problems.Problem-solving was measured following the stages of Polya's problem-solving,namely understanding the problem,devising a plan,carrying out the plan,and looking back.The interview was conducted to gain more insight into their problem solving skill.Data were analyzed statistically using independent sample t-test and normalized gain scores (N-gain).The results of the analysis of the initial data obtained a significant value of 0.809,which indicated there was no difference between the problem-solving skills of male and female students.Meanwhile,the final data analysis obtained a significant value of 0.034 which means there was a difference between the problem-solving skills of the students.This furthermore showed that the use of interactive multimedia in chemistry learning increased the problem-solving skills of male better than the female.Moreover,male students'problem-solving skills were higher than the females in all types of problems and at all stages of problem-solving.Due to interactive multimedia,the conceptual understanding and learning motivation of students is enhanced.
