Hence, project-based learning is the appropriate learning model to improve students' creativity because it requires the students to be directly involved in their learning. Besides, students will also be more interested in learning because the problems used are related to their environment. Thus, the purpose of this paper is sharing the effectiveness of project-based learning model in improving students' creativity.
