Abstract

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif yang bertujuan untuk memperoleh deskripsi proses berpikir kreatif mahasiswa berdasarkan perbedaan gender. Instrumen dalam penelitian ini adalah peneliti sendiri sebagai instrumen utama yang dipandu oleh tugas pemecahan masalah matematika dan pedoman wawancara yang valid dan reliabel. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan wawancara berbasis tugas. Subjek penelitian adalah mahasiswa semester VII Program studi Pendidikan Matematika STKIP Andi Matappa yang terdiri dari dua orang (1 orang laki-laki dan 1 orang perempuan). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: (1) Tidak terdapat perbedaan yang berarti tentang proses berpikir kreatif subjek laki-laki (S1) dan subjek perempuan (S2) dalam pemecahan masalah  matematika  yang memenuhi  aspek  lancar  (fluent),  fasih (flexible) dan baru (original), yaitu keduanya melalui tahapan: 1) persiapan, 2) inkubasi, 3) iluminasi, dan 4) verifikasi. Demikian pula, tidak  ditemukan  perbedaan  yang berarti  tentang  rangkaian  aktivias mental yang digunakan kedua subjek pada tiap tahapan; (2) Ditemu kenali perbedaan hasil tugas kedua subjek: 1) S1 menggunakan tiga cara yang baru, meskipun ketiga cara ini menggunakan konsep yang sama. Sedang S2, menggunakan satu cara baru, 2) fungsi-fungsi yang  ditemukan  S1  lebih  variatif  dan  lebih  kompleks  dibanding fungsi-fungsi yang ditemukan S2. Meskipun hasil tugas kedua subjek berbeda,namun keduanya kreatif dalam pemecahan masalah matematika.
