Abstract
<p>This study aimed at anlyzing the influence of project-based learning that aided matrix laboratory toward college student’s creative thinking skills and the influence of science generic skills toward the relationship between project -based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college student’s creative thinking skills. The method used in this research was pre-experiment method with design is one shot case study. Data analyzed by regression test with moderating variable. The Results of the analysis found that (1) there is the influence of project based learning model that aided matrix laboratory toward college student's creative thinking skills (44.3%); (2) there is the influence of science generic skills to the relationship between project-based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college student’s creative thinking skills (28.6%). The science generic skills had been contributed to strengthen the relationship between project-based learning model that aided matrix laboratory and college students’s creative thinking skills.</p><pre> </pre><p><strong>Keyword</strong><strong>s</strong><strong>: </strong>college students’s creative thinking skills, matrix laboratory, project-based learning model</p>

Orientation of the education should be relevant to demand of 21st century, that their characteristics were information, computation, automation, and communication (Saha & Mukherjee, 2003).So that, education should orientate to improve the college student’s knowledge and grow up the creative thinking and critical thinking (Wals & Jicling, 2002; Pithers & Soden, 2002)
Previous impact can lead to meaningful learning and whether traits such as creativity can be enhanced through the matrix laboratory (MATLAB) application (Balamuralithara & Woods, 2009; Wheeler, Waite & Bromfield, 2002)
Summary
Orientation of the education should be relevant to demand of 21st century, that their characteristics were information, computation, automation, and communication (Saha & Mukherjee, 2003). Indonesian Journal of Science and Education, Volume 2, Number 2 works the project- based problem that solved by application called matrix laboratory (MATLAB) Through this task, students are expected to be able to solve and visualize the abstract problem in the project into concrete and communicative solutions. Using the MATLAB to solve the abstract physical meaning problem in project based learning can aid the students to understand and interpret the meaning of equation in the form of graph (Gan, 2002; Blomhøj & Jensen, 2003). Based on this interpret, student able to explore their creative thinking to solve this problem. Through science generic skills help the students to improve their logical thinking so that they able to make various answers from a problem
