This research addressed to know the effectiveness of the student worksheet within problem-based learning model towards student's creative thinking skills. This research was kind of Research and Development (R&D) which implemented 4-D model that developed by Thiangarajan, Semmel, and Semmel which includes the defining, designing, and developing stage. The research instrument used a validated two-tier multiple choice questions. The enhancement of student's creativity was determined based on the results of the N-Gain analysis and the creative thinking skills assessment criteria.
