Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between students' mathematical creative thinking skills and their performance in solving mathematical literacy problems. The aim of this research is to understand how students' creativity affects their ability to solve open-ended problems, as well as improve their mathematical literacy. The research design of a qualitative case study was used by involving 30 grade VIII students who were tested through creativity tests and mathematical literacy tasks. The results showed that students with high creative thinking skills were able to demonstrate flexibility, originality, and fluency in problem-solving, which allowed them to apply mathematical concepts in real-life contexts. In contrast, students with low creativity tend to use more mechanical and limited methods of problem-solving. This research highlights the importance of an open-ended, problem-based approach to improving mathematical literacy by developing students' creativity. These findings have implications for developing teaching strategies to facilitate mathematics creativity. Further research should examine integrating technology and other innovative teaching methods to improve students' creative problem-solving skills.
