Creative thinking develops from students' potential; however, the level of ability to think creatively is different for every human being. Many scientists argue that the higher person's education level will be followed by the ability to think creatively. This statement's emergence stems from the idea that the higher a person's education is because the person receives more education and learning in quantity. From a different perspective, educators worry that the more knowledge a person gets from education and learning is mostly forgotten. It can be believed that not all learning can be understood by students. The conceptual approach applied in learning can help students understand various concepts. The quality of one's understanding can contribute to the ability to think creatively. The purpose of this study was to describe the causal relationship between conceptual understanding and creative thinking skills. The research data were obtained from 38 students through the pre-test and post-test of learning social change. The research data were analyzed using linear regression analysis. The results showed that the contribution of conceptual understanding to thinking creatively was 87%, and other factors influenced the rest. This study concluded that their causal relationship is significant between conceptual understanding and creative thinking skills.

Basic Competency

Existing learning has not fully facilitated 4C (critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity) skills and there are obstacles for students to encounter in studying biology, especially the material about plant tissue. It happens due to various limitations in achieving basic competency skills. One of the learning approaches that can be used to support 4C skills is the STEM approach which is supported by student worksheets (SW) to guide the learning process. The purpose of this study was to measure the effectiveness of STEM-based SW to train students' creative thinking skills. The research method used is descriptive quantitative and qualitative with one group pre-test and post-test design. The research subjects were 21 students of XI grades at SMAK St.Hendrikus. Data analysis of the N-Gain test of creative thinking skills obtained an average N-gain of 0.7 with a medium category. The N-Gain analysis of creative thinking skills using the T-Test with a sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 indicates that STEM-based worksheets are effective in training students' creative thinking skills.

Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) provides an environment that enhances social interaction and shared knowledge construction among students. However, limited research has examined CSCL reinforced by question-asking scripting activity. This research investigated the effects of CSCL with question-asking scripting activity on the development of conceptual understanding and critical thinking in science. Moreover, the research design was a three-group pre-test-post-test quasi-experimental study in which the research sample were 106 Grade 7 students. The only difference between the control and the experimental groups was the exposure to CSCL. The experimental groups were exposed to CSCL approaches: one without scripting while one was exposed with question-asking scripting activity. Results revealed that CSCL approaches significantly affected the development of students’ conceptual understanding and critical thinking. Specifically, CSCL with scripting stimulated more intellectual discussion which allowed learners to deepen lesson comprehension and improve their critical thinking skills. Insights on the innovations through technology integration, collaborative inquiry learning, and question-asking activity to enhance science education were also discussed. The findings of this study have important implications for future practice.
