Abstract—Creativity plays a crucial role in higher education, especially in preparing students to face future challenges. This study aims to measure the improvement of creativity in pre-service physics teachers through the implementation of the Collaborative Problem-Solving (CPS) model supported by Augmented Reality (AR) based teaching materials. The teaching materials also include tasks to create mind maps. The study uses a pre-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test control group design, involving 67 students as the sample. Creativity data was collected using the Creativity Self-Assessment (CSA) Questionnaire based on AR-assisted collaborative learning before and after. Data analysis using the Rasch Model and Paired Sample Test showed a significant increase in creativity from pre-test to post-test with p = 0.001 after the intervention. Therefore, the implementation of the CPS model supported by AR-integrated teaching materials has proven to be effective in enhancing students’ creativity.
