Education fact of Indonesia is not easy to change teacher learning style in the class. Teachers and related parties have tried various methods. Jaworski (1994 : 40) says that there is no best way to educate. Based on Large Scale Survey research, learning should have tried to provide opportunities for teachers to used various method, such as exposition method, discuss method, problem solving method, discovery learning, learning with practice, and apply it in everyday life. From the result, we know that many teachers have difficulty for implement learning theory, the causes are the lack of teacher understanding about learning theory and how to implement it, environment and education system that is less supportive, the lack of learning facilities, and teachers have difficult to handle many students.
Creative Learning in International Standard School (SBI) is how far we can do in intention, attitude, knowledge, skill, experience learning. Creative learning is based on (1) knowledge in each dimension, (2) object in each dimension, (3) formal application, such as in technology or others knowledge, (4) practice in each dimension. Critical power in SBI is developed by creative learning activities. It can start from define school substance. Ebbutt, S and Straker, A (1995) say that school substance as (1) learning is search pattern and relationship activities, (2) learning activities need creativity, imagination, intuition, and discovery, (3) learning activities and the result needs to be communicated, (4) problem solving is part of learning activities, (5) social interaction is needed in learning activities. All parties involved have an important influence in realizing SBI.
Learning steps in SBI are (1) preparation steps, consist of make a plan learning environment and make activities plan, (2) learning steps, consist of developing teachers’ role and managing the time, (3) evaluation steps, consist of observe students’ activities, evaluate her/him self, evaluate definition, process, skill, fact and the result, evaluate the result and monitoring students progress. To make creative and critical thinking learning, first we use humanism principle, understanding students’ characteristic, and use student center learning. From the fact, teachers say that learning innovation have to do so students can develop their critical thinking and creativity.
