And, the intervention was taught by the first author. Based on the 7 stages, the learning activities were provided into 6 lesson plans in three weeks (12 hours). However, the learning activities have been provided extra time for 4 hours mentioned in the lesson plan 3 and 6. Methodology regarded interpretive paradigm. Grade 8 students’ applying knowledge and creative thinking could be interpreted when they develop some STEM projects as the solutions of water issues. This study adapted Barak and Doppelt (2000)’s Creative Thinking Scale (CTS) to assess students’ applying knowledge and creative thinking. The finding revealed that the portfolio elements at the end of the water STEM education unit revealed that most of portfolio elements could be interpreted for achievement of creative thinking in layer of awareness. Some of them could be viewed as layer of observation, strategy, and reflection. The paper will clarify what and how students’ project could be interpreted in each layer of creative thinking.
