Abstract

Learning in the 21st century requires creative thinking from students. However, bibliometric research still needs to be conducted on developing creative thinking at higher education institutes. This bibliometric study overview of the development of creative thinking is based on three bibliometric indicators: (1) the current development of creative thinking, (2) the subject area of creative thinking, and (3) significant contributions to the study of creative thinking. The methodology uses VOSviewer from the Scopus database and Harzing's Publish-or-Perish analysis. The results from this study provide essential information based on the current developments and trends in creative thinking among students.
