Increasing students' mathematical creative thinking abilities through the discovery learning learning model

Mathematics improves higher order thinking skills, especially creative thinking. Creative thinking involves logical and divergent thinking based on intuition. This allows students to solve problems through a variety of methods. However, traditional learning methods limit this ability. The Discovery Learning model that involves active student participation can improve these skills. This research aims to improve students' mathematical creative thinking abilities through the Discovery Learning model. The research method used is quantitative with Non-equivalent Control Group Design. The sample for this research was Class The experimental group received the Discovery Learning model, while the control group used conventional methods. Pretest and posttest data were analyzed using statistical tests including normality, homogeneity and T test. The experimental class used the Discovery Learning method, while the control class used conventional methods. The pretest and posttest results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group. The findings show that Discovery Learning increases creative thinking in mathematics.
