Abstract
This study was aimed to describe mathematical creativity of elementary school students in solving mathematical problems by considering technology role in mathematics learning process in the classroom. Data collection technique was done by giving questionnaires to students and providing creativity tests on the components of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The research subjects were 34 fifth graders at one of elementary schools in Palangkaraya. Based on the results of the creativity test, the results showed that 30% of students were able to produce various ideas or questions (fluency), 10% were able to express various solutions (flexibility), 2% were able to provide relatively unique new ideas or answers, 15% were able to specify the answers they wrote in detail (elaboration).
