Abstract

The Model-Eliciting Activities (MEAs) approach is a reality-based approach, works in small groups and presents a model to help students build problem solving and get students to apply an understanding of the mathematical concepts which they have learned. The main adventages of MEAs to develop student's thinking then students can create their own models to solve mathematical problems. The purpose of this study is to test influence of the MEAs learning approach on student's craetive thinking skills and self-confidence. This study is a quasi-experimental research using pre-test and post-test control group design. The data in this research were analyzed using Two Ways ANOVA using SPSS 17.0 for windows. Results of Two Ways ANOVA shows that the MEAs approach has significant value gained 0.000 and 0.012 which are less than 0.05. This means that H0 refused and H1 accepted so there is influence of MEAs approach on creative thinking skills and self-confidence.
