Abstract
Mathematics teacher's competences in understanding some properties and relationships between the elements of geometry objects support the students’ learning in mastering the geometry contents. This research investigates and describes the creative thinking approach of teacher candidates in defining geometry concepts based on recognizing primitive and elementary objects, drawing, and writing process of concept image. The steps are as follows. Using pre-test, we evaluated the students who had a good basic knowledge of geometry to attend a geometry course. We provided seven geometry definitions to encourage the students to understand. Then, they were tested and ranked by their understandings of the seven definitions with passing grade minimum score sixty of interval 0-100. From the qualified students, they do the task to compose some alternative definitions of these concepts through the creative thinking scheme. We interviewed them to know the understanding process. This research found that students' creativity offers many ideas and ways to construct diverse alternative definitions. It included understanding pre-knowledge, the essential features needed to build the geometry concepts, and structuring definition language. We discovered three group types of creative thinking result in the defining geometry concepts, i.e., productive-creative, constant-creative, and decrease-creative thinking. This research contributes knowledge for students about how geometry definitions are constructed by introducing primitive and elementary objects of geometry, sketching concepts image, and writing practice of the concepts. The creative thinking scheme can guide and lead students to state the geometry definitions in both descriptive and connotative expressions with different sentences.
