Abstract

Berpikir kreatif sangat diperlukan dalam menyelesaikan masalah matematika, namun kenyataannya masih banyak calon guru yang belum mampu menerapkannya dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan matematika, khususnya dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan pembuktian matematika. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif yang bertujuan untuk menganalisis serta mendeskripsikan hasil jawaban mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar ditinjau dari berpikir kreatif dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan pembuktian matematika. Penelitian ini dilakukan kepada mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar yang berjumlah 35 mahasiwa. Penelitian ini mengambil dua orang subjek penelitian dengan kemampuan akademik sedang. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan dua soal berbentuk uraian. Analisis data dilakukan melalui analisis dokumen dengan mengkategorikan tingkat berpikir kreatif dari mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar berdasarkan hasil kerja subjek penelitian yang kemudian hasil jawaban subjek penelitian yang kemudian dideskripsikan sesuai dengan indikator berpikir kreatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar masih berada pada kategori cukup kreatif dan kurang kreatif dalam menyelesaikan permalahahan pembuktian matematika. Ini ditunjukkan dengan banyaknya hasil pekerjaan yang dilakukan dengan menguji angka maupun melakukan operasi dengan konsep yang salah salah dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan pembuktian matematika. Kemampuan berpikir kreatif calon guru sekolah dasar harus segera diperbaiki sehingga kemampuan yang dimiliki tidak hanya bermanfaat untuk calon guru tersebut namun untuk siswa yang akan diajar di sekolah.
