The focus of this study was the low level of creative thinking skills among fifth-grade elementary school students and the lack of use of varied instructional media, particularly audio-visual media. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of using audio-visual media on students' creative thinking skills in fifth-grade elementary school learning. The method used in this study was a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The study used a non-probability sampling technique, specifically saturated sampling. The population consisted of 44 students, namely all fifth-grade students. Data were collected using test techniques in the form of essay questions and non-test techniques in the form of observation. The data were analyzed using an independent t-test. The results of the study showed that audio-visual media were effective in improving elementary school students' creative thinking skills because they were able to produce both audio and visual elements simultaneously.
