This research is motivated by the lack of creative thinking skills of students in social studies learning. This is because learning is still dominated by teachers. This research aims at describing the Project Based Learning model to encourage creative thinking, the planning of Project Based Learning, the implementation strategies of ProjectBased Learning, and the solutions to obstacles in developing creative thinking. The approach employed in this research was a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The data were collected through interviews and documentation studies. Thesubjects of this study were a social studies teacher and 25 students in class VII-E.
