Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the creative thinking profile of junior high school grade VIII in solving geometry problems based on van Hiele's level and student's visual learning style. The subjects used were junior high school students in grade VIII. Data collection in this study used tests and questionnaires, the test consisted of the van Hiele test consist of 25 multiple choice questions and 2 geometric questions designed based on indicators of creative thinking, namely fluency, flexibility, originally, and ellaborasy. 1) Students at the visualization level in solving geometry problems are students who are able to meet the fluency indicators, while for the indicators of flexibility, authenticity, and details students cannot fulfill them because the answer sheets are still not visible. In addition, at the time of the interview, the students were also unable to give. 2) Students at the analytical level in solving geometry problems are students able to meet all indicators of creative thinking, namely fluency, flexibility, originality and detail. 3) Informal deduction level students in solving geometry problems are students able to meet the indicators of fluency, flexibility and detail, while the informal deduction level students' authenticity indicators have not been able to fulfill them.
