This study aims to determine the effect of the GASING strategy with algebraic tile media on students’ understanding of mathematical concepts and creativity. This study uses a quasi-experimental type with Posttest Only Control Design and uses data collection instruments in the form of concepts understanding questions and creativity in the form of descriptions. The results of this study indicate: (1) there is an effect of GASING mathematics learning with algebraic tile media on the ability to understand mathematical concepts; (2) there is an effect of GASING mathematics learning with algebraic tile media on student creativity; (3) there is an effect of the GASING strategy with algebraic tile media on the ability to understand mathematical concepts and student creativity simultaneously. The explanation regarding the results of the study explains that the Treatment using the GASING strategy with algebraic tile media in the experimental class is proven to be better in increasing the ability to understand mathematical concepts and student creativity compared to conventional activities. This is following the hypothesis which states that there is an effect of the GASING strategy with algebraic tile media on students’ understanding of mathematical concepts and creativity.
