Application of STMCpE-Based chemistry books with chemo-entrepreneurship orientation in the learning of acid-base solutions to improve students’ creative thinking skills

Creative thinking is one of the high-level thinking skill as a form of finding the best solution to solve a problem that emphasizes aspects of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using STMCpE based Chemo-entrepreneurship textbooks on students’ creative thinking skill on Acid – Base Material. This is a quasi-experimental research with nonequivalent control group design. Data obtained from the results of creative thinking tests conducted in the experimental class and the control class before and after learning. Pretests are used as student’s premier knowledge data and the data after learning are used as data for different tests using ANCOVA. The results showed that the creative thinking skill of students who studied with STMCpE Based Chemo-entrepreneurship Textbook higher than students who studied with conventional learning with a significance value of 0.000
