Learning module based on Problem Based Learning (PBL) was constructed based on Meyer model.

The levels of creative thinking skills of students in mathematics were fair for the fluency component but unsatisfactory for the flexibility and originality components. The findings indicate that there was significant increases in all components of critical thinking skills in mathematics before and after using the learning module. As for creative thinking skills in mathematics, significant increases were found for the flexibility and originality components but not for the fluency component.
