The ability to think creatively is one of the important skills that needs to be developed in learning mathematics. This research aims to see that the Open-Ended Problem Based Learning (Open-Ended PBL) model can help improve students' creative mathematical thinking abilities. Using a quasi-experimental approach, research was conducted on class VII students at one of the state junior high schools in Central Buton Regency. Two classes were chosen randomly, namely one as an experimental group, namely class VII-B, which received learning using the Open-Ended PBL model, and the other as a control group, namely class VII-A, with conventional learning. After the learning process, students' creative thinking abilities are analyzed using statistical tests, starting with normality and homogeneity tests as well as the independent sample t-test. The results show that students taught with the Open-Ended PBL model experienced significant improvement, with an average N-gain of 0.42 and a significance value of 0.00. A p-value of less than 0.05 is evidence that the application of the Open-Ended PBL model has a significant influence on increasing students' creative mathematical thinking abilities. These findings show that the Open-Ended PBL approach not only helps students understand mathematics more deeply, but also encourages them to think more openly and creatively. This model can be a strategic choice for teachers in creating more meaningful mathematics learning.

This study describes mathematical creative thinking abilities of mathematics learning by collecting descriptive data obtained from the classification dispositions of mathematical creative thinking categories, creative thinking abilities test questions, and valid and reliable interviews. The research subjects chosen were four students from 57 students. The research subjects were two male students and two female students who had creative abilities, and the highest test scores were in the high mathematical creative thinking disposition category. Data analysis was performed with the stages of data collection, reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that male and female students in the high mathematical creative thinking disposition category have creative abilities that fulfill the aspects of flexibility, fluency, and elaboration. Flexibility and fluency aspects have an average score with very good criteria. Then, there are differences in the elaboration aspect, where the average score of female and male students are 3.9 and 3.4, respectively. It shows that the difference is not significant, namely 0.5, which indicates that female students are better at the elaboration aspect. Even so, male students also fulfill the elaboration aspect, wherein the very good criteria both. However, male and female students did not satisfy the originality aspect. The creative ability can be reached by having a high mathematical creative thinking disposition. Therefore, the teacher must be able to instill a high mathematical creative thinking disposition in mathematics learning. The high mathematical creative thinking disposition makes students flexible, fluent, and thorough in solving mathematical problems.

This research aimed to discuss creative mathematical thinking ability based on self-efficacy in CPS learning with scaffolding. This research employed qualitative descriptive design. The subjects of the research were 6 students of class XI of junior high school selected based on three categories of self-efficacy, they were: high, medium, and low. Two students were found in the high self-efficacy category, two students from the medium self-efficacy category and two students from the low self-efficacy category. The results of this research showed that students with high self-efficacy level were able to complete the four qualifications of creative thinking abilities, they were fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Students with the medium self-efficacy level were still having difficulty showing up ideas to determine the unusual way of being used. Students with low self-efficacy level had difficulty in understanding the problem so that it is only able to meet one qualification of creative thinking ability that is fluency. Based on the explanation of the results of this research, it can be concluded that no student with low self-efficacy level has a high score of creative thinking ability.

To find out students' mathematical creative thinking abilities, this can be done by giving students open-ended problems. The aim of this research is to describe students' mathematical creative thinking abilities in solving open-ended problems when viewed from their self-concept. This type of research is qualitative descriptive research. The subject selection technique used in this research was purposive sampling. The subjects of this research consisted of one student with a high self-concept category, one student with a medium self-concept category, and one student with a low self-concept. Data collection methods in this research include questionnaire methods and tests. And the data analysis techniques used include: analysis of mathematical self-concept questionnaires, analysis of open-ended mathematics questions. The research results show that students with a high self-concept category can fulfill all aspects of creative thinking abilities, including fluency, flexibility and originality, so that their mathematical creative thinking abilities are also high. In contrast to students with moderate self-concept, it was found that their creative thinking abilities were low and students with low self-concept actually had moderate mathematical creative thinking abilities. So it can be concluded that based on this research, it shows that students' self-concept does not always describe students' mathematical creative thinking abilities in solving open-ended problems.

The creative thinking ability of students in physics learning is still relatively low, especially because the strategies, methods or learning media are less varied and do not involve students actively in the learning process. This study aims to determine the effect of project-based learning physics e-modules on students' creative thinking abilities. This study is a pre-experimental study using a one group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 90 students selected using the purposive sampling technique. This project-based learning physics e-module product is effective in improving students' creative thinking abilities as seen from the results of the n-gain test to the three schools, an average n-gain of 0.71 was obtained in the high category. Based on the interpretation of the effectiveness of the n-gain value of 71% obtained, it is classified into the fairly effective category. And seen from the hypothesis test, it produces sig. 0.05. This study has implications for the effectiveness of students' creative thinking abilities because of the influence of project-based learning physics e-modules.

Creative thinking skills can encourage students to develop their thinking broadly, but in reality creative thinking skills will only develop if students practice continuously. Therefore, special strategies are needed to increase students' creativity, especially in learning mathematics. The aim of this research is to analyze the use of the Think Aloud Protocol strategy in identifying students' creative thinking abilities in elementary schools. This research uses qualitative research using a descriptive approach. The research subject was class V which was carried out in the odd semester of the 2023/2024 academic year. Data collection techniques through written tests and interviews. The validation process uses triangulation of sources and methods using 4 stages of analysis from Miles and Huberman. The results of the research showed that students in the very high creative thinking ability category mastered all 4 indicators of creative thinking ability, while those in the low creative thinking ability category mastered 1 of the 4 creative thinking ability indicators, this can be seen from their lack of fluency, flexibility, and lack of innovation in presenting. presentation of problem solving in questions. In conclusion, students' creative thinking abilities show different levels, especially in understanding the questions, describing the meaning of the questions, and explaining the answers to the questions. Therefore, involving students in habits of thinking will help students come up with different perspectives.
