The 2013 curriculum aims to prepare Indonesian people to have creative thinking skills. Creative thinking can be built when students do the process of solving problems scientifically, and it is done in small groups through Problem Based Learning (PBL). In learning, students in groups find their own solutions to the problem while the teacher acts as a facilitator. In small groups, students also collaborate, learn, and care for each other so that no student feels neglected through Lesson Study for Learning Community (LSLC). This study aimed to improve students' creative thinking skills by applying tools learning through PBL-based LSLC.
