This study was motivated by the low level of fantasy story writing skills and creative thinking abilities among seventh-grade students at MTs Al-Burhan. This situation highlighted the need for an instructional model capable of encouraging students to develop ideas creatively and solve problems during the writing process. The study aimed to describe the implementation of the Creative Problem Solving model supported by video media, analyze differences in fantasy story writing skills and creative thinking abilities between the experimental and control classes, and test the model's effectiveness. A quantitative experimental method was employed using a Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of class 7.01 as the experimental group and class 7.03 as the control group. The results indicated that the implementation of the Creative Problem Solving model supported by video media was highly successful. Mann-Whitney U test results revealed significant differences between the experimental and control classes regarding fantasy story writing skills (Sig. 0.047 < 0.05) and creative thinking abilities (Sig. 0.003 < 0.05). Wilcoxon test results demonstrated that the model was effective in improving fantasy story writing skills, with the average score rising from 61 to 81, and creative thinking abilities increasing from 56.25 to 82.49 (Sig. 0.000 < 0.05). Thus, the Creative Problem Solving model supported by video media is effective for enhancing students' fantasy story writing skills and creative thinking abilities.
