The current curriculum emphasizes students’ critical and creative thinking skills. Project-Based Learning (PjBL) provides meaningful learning experiences by encouraging students to become more active, disciplined, and creative. This study aimed to improve students’ creative thinking skills through PjBL. Classroom action research was conducted using observations and tests, and the data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that students’ creative thinking skills increased from 63.9% in Cycle I to 81.49% in Cycle II. Learning outcomes also improved, with the percentage of students achieving mastery increasing from 69.7% to 90.9%. These findings indicate that PjBL can effectively enhance students’ creative thinking skills and learning outcomes.
