Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop and apply the project-based learning strategy in blended learning environment to raise and enhance scientific thinking skill, creativity, and problem solving skills to students who would be teachers of an elementary school in the future. This study was conducted as an action research based on an educational university. The study included 25 participants in a class. Data were collected through observation, surveys, interview and students' artifacts. Results indicated the project-based learning strategy in blended learning environment allowed students to raise problem solving skill, critical thinking skill, and creativity. Finally implications of this study, obstacles to conduct this study, and recommendations to implement this strategy more effectively and efficiently were presented.
