Abstract

Physics learning achievements are defined as students having the ability to be responsive to global issues and play an active role in providing problem-solving. However, educational design encounters problems linked to creative thinking skills, such as the ability to consider things in new ways to explain physical phenomena that could otherwise be justified. This study uses bibliometric analysis to provide graphical info about the statistical description of the literature from 45 articles issued in reputable international journals correlated to the theme of creative thinking skills in physics from 1959 to 2023. An in-depth study was conducted on 36 articles to reveal the research results. Document Types are obtained from the Scopus database for creative thinking in physics education in articles, book chapters, books, and conference papers. Visualization with Software R Blibiometrix with three visualizations: Annual Scientific Production, most cited articles, Country scientific production, and word cloud and Co-occurrence network. The findings of the analysis show that the dominant topic is creative thinking in physics education of research topics trend in 2023 are students, engineering education, and teaching. Less researched topics are cognitive abilities, active learning, and classical mechanics. Creative thinking in the Physics educational design and to investigate the trend of creative thinking and its authors from across the country. There is about. This study can provide a global roadmap for researchers and education on increasing creative thinking in physics education. © 2024 Author(s).
