21-century education has evolved for over 20 years, yet the enhancement of student creativity still needs to be improved to create high-quality students. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Scientific Problem Based Creativity Learning (SPBCL) in enhancing students' creative traits. This study employed a quasi-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test research design to measure the increase in student creativity. The research subjects were 11th-grade high school students in Mandau, Indonesia. Data was collected using a chemistry creativity test and analyzed using descriptive and inferential analysis (Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney) and triangulated with qualitative result data (interview). The results of the study show that both learning approaches significantly enhance student creativity. The comparison of these two learning models indicates that Scientific Problem Based Creativity Learning is more effective in enhancing creative traits compared to Problem Based Learning, with Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) = < 0.001 (Z score = -4.129). The enhancement in creative traits is evident in the improved scores of creativity tests, encompassing aspects such as fluency, flexibility, and originality. The implications of this study suggest that integrating the creative process into Problem Based Learning, named Scientific Problem Based Creativity Learning, is more effective in enhancing creative traits. Thus, this learning approach can become an effective strategy for improving student creativity in educational environments, especially chemistry learning.
