The research instrument is a test of creative thinking skills and inventory. The data analysis used were normality test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis testing using independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test. The results showed that the level of creative thinking ability of the experimental class was proven through activity through analysis of the paired sample t-test hypothesis test tcount 10,187 > ttable 2,100 which means that SOLE has an effect on the creative thinking.
