Abstract

Writing a story is a creative activity because the writer is able to express ideas corresponding to the result of their imagination. Playing with this kind of imagination requires creative thinking. Psychologically, junior high school students are entering a zone which is full of various imaginations. However, in fact, there are a lot of students who are incapable of expressing ideas creatively. This weakness is caused by the way of thinking which developed in learning Indonesian and Indonesian literature that has not led to the empowerment of divergent thinking. In other words, the students are accustomed to think convergently, and therefore, to develop and diversify ideas became difficult. In order to cope with this condition, a learning model that can develop the students’ divergent thinking is needed. As an effort to improve the existing learning condition, this study proposed to use comic-based Treffinger model as an interesting alternative in writing learning. The data in this study collected through pre-test and post-test. The results showed that by using comic-based Treffinger model, learning atmosphere becomes interesting and the students able to produced ideas more creatively. This collaboration can produce stories full of fluent, original, elaborate, flexible, and new ideas. In other words, through this learning model, the students can freely develop their imagination so that the stories produced are well established.
