Abstract

Piaget’s revolutionary study on the cognitive development of children has focused on the development of logic. Logical operations and a variety of classifications based on the set of accepted rules involve convergent thinking. Children and adults have logical and creative thinking which deal with a reality of thinking. This study aims to examine a cognitive structure of students, which is closely related to the Piaget’s cognitive development theories of students when creative thinking. Students were given an open mathematical problem and were expected to be able to take ad-vantage of sensitivity, fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration which can be seen as clearly of their structure cognitive.
