The 2013 curriculum requires teachers to integrate higher-order thinking skills. One of them is creative thinking. Mind map integration in Problem Based Learning (PBL) is thought to be able to assist students in improving creative thinking. This study aims to determine the effect of increasing creative thinking through the integration of mind maps in PBL on eighth grade students of SMPN 25 Pekanbaru. This type of research is quasi-experimental. The research population was class VIII SMPN 25 Pekanbaru. The research sample consisted of class VIII.1 as the experimental class and class VIII.2 as the control class. Data in the form of pretest and posttest. N-gain analysis was conducted to see the increase in student scores and MANOVA was used to examine the effect of mind maps in PBL on students creative thinking abilities. The average value of creative thinking is better in the experimental class which is 78.08 in the digestive system material with N-gain relatively close to high, namely 0.68 while in the control class only 54.88 is sufficient category. The MANOVA test also shows that there is an effect of mind maps in PBL on the creative thinking ability of class VIII SMPN 25 Pekanbaru with a significance value of 0.000 <0.05. This shows that the application of mind map integration to PBL is able to improve the creative thinking skills of SMP Negeri 25 Pekanbaru students.

Visual thinking plays an essential role in solving problems and in learning mathematics. Many students do not understand how to graphically or geometrically represent problems and solve algebra problems. Visual thinking is the ability, process, and results of creating, interpreting, using, and imagining images and diagrams on paper or with technological tools, describing and communicating information and ideas, developing ideas, and understanding improvement. This research describes students’ visual thinking ability to solve integral problems. The approach used in this study was descriptive qualitative. The subjects in this study were three students from the Department of Mathematics Education at the State Islamic Institute of Tulungagung. The data were collected by using tests and interviews. The steps to analyze the data were categorization, reduction, exposure, interpretation, and conclusion. Based on the analysis of students’ visual thinking skills in solving integral problems, there were three levels of visual thinking: semi-local visual, local visual, and global visual. At the semi-local visual level, students could only understand algebraically, and they have not shown it graphically at all. Meanwhile, at the local visual level, they have already understood geometry as an alternative language and been able graphically represented problems or concepts, even though it was not perfectly done yet. While on a global visual level, they could perfectly visualize visual thinking indicators, understand algebra and geometry as alternative languages for problem-solving, extract specific information from diagrams, graph problems, and use them to solve problems perfectly.

  This study aimed at identify the evaluation estimates of the content of the book of maths for the intermediate stage in the light of visual thinking skills. The descriptive approach was used through analysis of content based on objective, structured and quantitative description of thinking skills. The study tool is developed by identifying visual thinking skills related to math study and necessary for middle school students.  The results of the study generally indicated that the content of mathematics books for middle school was interested in visual thinking skills in all middle-school grades. In short, middle school math books have made a clear effort, demonstrating the use of a lot of skills clearly and focusing on important skills for middle school students with visual thinking skills.

This study aims to develop students' creative thinking through mind map training by organizing information in learning. Students' thinking skills are needed to understand the subject matter, utilize information and creativity. Thinking is a mental activity in solving problems by distinguishing basic thinking skills and complex thinking skills. Two complex thinking processes namely critical thinking and creative thinking. Critical thinking is an organized process that involves mental activities such as problem-solving, decision making, analyzing assumptions, and scientific inquiry. Creative thinking is a thought process for developing original, aesthetic, constructive ideas or results that relate to views, concepts, and emphasize intuitive, rational, and creative aspects of thinking and synonyms of divergent thinking. The development of students' creative thinking is developing creative thinking, developing a link between mind maps and creative thinking skills, and describing the verses of the Qur'an about creative thinking.
