Summary
This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the IPA KIT teaching aids for earthquakes science KIT in improving students' collaboration skills and creative thinking. The results showed that the use of IPA KIT teaching aids for earthquakes was more effective in improving students' creative thinking skills and collaboration. Teachers are advised to use the earthquake science KIT teaching aids for earthquakes to improve the creative thinking skills and collaboration of junior high school students. Popov et al (2012) stated that problems of communication are caused by a lack of collaborative skills They stated that it can prevent students from engaging in group work and contributing to group outcomes. Teachers are often difficult to assess the performance and achievement of students when they apply collaborative learning in the classroom at all levels of education (Strijbos, 2011). The role of the teacher in the learning process needs to involve collaborative skills so that students are accustomed to collaborating with various creative learning activities
