Kemampuan Berpikir Kreatif Matematis Melalui Problem Based Learning “What’s Another Way” dan Discovery Learning
Abstract
The students’ mathematical creative thinking ability which were not optimal became the reason for conducting this study. It was a quasi-experimental research through problem-based learning “what’s another way” and discovery learning. In this case, the population of the study were all seven grade students in a junior high schools in Pekalongan regency with two classes as the sample. The data were gathered by employing three research instruments such as mathematics creative thinking ability test, teaching materials, and observation sheet. The results of the study indicated that there was no difference between the achievement and the enhancement of the students’ mathematical creative thinking ability in two experimental classes. Besides, the overall students’ activities in both the class employing problem-based learning “what’s another way” and the class employing discovery learning had been very good.
