The purpose of this study is to develop HOT (Higher Order Thinking) Lab–based practicum guide that improves pre-service physics teachers' creative thinking skills. The research method used 3D-1I model (Define, Design, Develop and Implementation). The subjects of this study are 40 students of Physics Education Program UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. The results showed that the HOT Lab-based practicum guide has the characteristics which: 1) contain context-rich issues, 2) solve problem through practicum, 3) apply physics concepts, 4) require creative and critical thinking in solving problems, 6) have alternative answers that are not trivial, 7) present the result of problem-solving. The implementation of HOT Lab can improve the creative thinking skills of physics teachers on the concept of the electric circuit. The HOT lab has characteristics as mentioned before and when being implemented, it can improve students' creative thinking skill as it is developed based on problem-solving laboratory and creative problem-solving. It can be concluded that HOT Lab-based practicum guide has been successfully developed and when implemented can improve the creative thinking skills pre-service physics teachers'. Thus, HOT Lab can be used as an alternative in developing high-level thinking skills.
