Students' experience in solving problems through discovery is a prerequisite for students' critical and analytical thinking in constructing their learning outcomes, so that a knowledge system process will be formed in their students' memories that is ready to be reused when such knowledge is needed. Less optimal student learning outcomes are caused by several factors, one of which is the low attention and lack of concentration of students in following mathematics learning. Teachers often provide lessons in the form of lectures and questions and answers, so students are less motivated to develop creative thinking skills in solving problems. The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in student mathematics learning outcomes after the implementation of problem based learning learning models. This type of research is classroom action research with two cycles, where each cycle consists of activities of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Data retrieval is carried out by a written test on two linear variables. This research was conducted in class VIII-F of SMP Negeri 22 Surabaya with 32 students.

The ability to think creatively is needed by students in mathematics learning activities, because creativity raises ideas in solving mathematical problems, so that the expected learning objectives are achieved. In addition, the mathematical resilience factor is needed to make students more persistent, never give up, enjoy being challenged, so that students' perspective on mathematics is not something to be afraid of anymore. This study aims to determine the effect of an open-ended approach on the mathematical creative thinking ability based on the mathematical resilience of Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs). This type of research is an experimental design that uses a factorial design. The selected population has been subjected to a one-way ANOVA test with the results having an average similarity, so that the sample was taken using the Cluster Random technique with randomly selected samples, namely class VIII-1 which was selected as the experimental class and class VIII-2 was selected as the control class. The results showed: 1) there were differences in mathematical creative thinking skills between students learning with open-ended learning and students learning using conventional learning; 2) there are differences in mathematical creative thinking abilities between students who have high, medium and low mathematical resilience; 3) while for interaction there is no interaction between the open-ended learning approach and students' mathematical resilience to mathematical creative thinking abilities. So the results of this study can be used to improve mathematics learning in class.

The ability to think creatively and self regulated learning is very important in learning mathematics, in order to train students to develop their creativity. But in reality, mathematics learning that is currently happening has not been able to develop mathematical creative thinking skills and increase students’ self-regulated learning. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the open-ended approach and the ability to think creative mathematically and self-regulated learning and how to implement it in school in the perspective of literature review. The type of research used is literature review, where articles are collected using search engines such as EBSCO, Science direct, and Scopus. Based on the articles collected, the results show that: 1. Mathematics learning to use an open-ended approach has an effect on increasing students ‘creative thinking skills and self-regulated learning, 2. The open-ended approach is higher in increasing students’ creative thinking abilities compared to using a conventional approach, 3. The open-ended approach to learning has the following steps: a) the teacher organizes students in learning activities; b) the teacher exposes students to open problems; c) the teacher guides and directs students in solving problems with various solutions and various answers; d) students present their work and compare with the work of other students in front of the class; and e) students conclude the subject matter, which is guided by the teacher. 4. To apply open-ended learning, it is necessary to prepare learning that requires high creativity for a teacher.
