Based on these facts, the researcher considers it important to develop a creative learning model in expectation that learners will have creativity competence as a provision in managing life. This study is a quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest control group design. The samples are junior high school students in Makassar.

As a result of the study, the use of Synectics learning model combined with mind maps and cooperative strategies have a significant impact on the ability of creative thinking, creative attitude and mastery of the subject matter to students.} }
