Abstract: This study examines the implementation of Edupas as a learning platform in the subjects of the IPAS (Natural and Social Sciences) project to improve the creative thinking skills of vocational school students in Semarang City. Edupas is designed to support interactive and collaborative learning, allowing students to be actively involved in the learning process. The method used in this study is a quasy experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The data were collected through pre-test questions and posttest for creative thinking skills as well as analyzing student work results on worksheets and observations. The results show that the use of Edupas significantly improves students’ creative thinking skills, especially in innovation, problem-solving, and teamwork. However, the study also found challenges, including limited technological infrastructure and training needs for teachers to make the most of the platform. This study recommends that schools improve technology facilities and provide continuous training for teachers to optimize the use of Edupas. Thus, Edupas is expected to be an effective tool in improving the creative thinking skills of vocational school students in Semarang City.
