In Indonesia currently is deals with the Organization of the activities of learning that is still not effective. An indication of the way it looks with the teacher who many still stuck in learning that tend to be boring. In interacting with students, the position of the teacher feels are still very dominant. The approach and methods used to seem less varied. The concept of learning as it doesn't seem relevant again with the demands and challenges of current education (Amri, 2010:139). This has an impact on the low value of mathematics in the study of comparative international Indonesia PISA (Programme for International Student just my Assesment) in 2012, on mathematical literacy puts Indonesia ranked 64th with a score of 375 from 65 countries participants of PISA. Indonesia only slightly better from Peru who ranked at the bottom. Indonesia kids who follow PISA has an average score of mathematical literacy 375. The majority of Indonesia's students have not reached level 2 for mathematical literacy (OECD, 212). While PISA pegged the score 471 for the ability of the international average. This indicates the ability of the students of Indonesia in resolving problems that demands the ability of studying, giving reasons, and communicate effectively, as well as solve and interpret the problems in various situations is still very less (Stacey, 2010). That is because the students, unfamiliar working on problem-based problems of everyday life is more complex.Based on those conditions, then the need for mathematical learning innovations centered on students and provide an opportunity to the students to enhance learning activities so that students can find their own mathematical concepts. Alternative learning models that can be used to teach math concepts is a Creative Problem Solving (CPS). According to Asikin (2008), learning a Creative Problem Solving (CPS) is a learning model that do focus on teaching and problem solving skills, followed by reinforcement of skills. In this CPS student learning required on so that students are able to study in removing capability-capability to solve problems that have never been found. CPS consists of learning models phase clarification issues, disclosure opinion, evaluation, and selection, as well as implementations (Pepkin, 2004). Familiarize students with the use of independent steps in solving problems are expected to help students to improve the ability of mathematical literacy and overcoming difficulties in learning mathematics.
