Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze publications on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking in order to increase aligned referrals. Data collection techniques used PoP (Harzing) software, while data analysis utilized VOS Viewer software. A total of 200 articles on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking were retrieved from Google Scholar data sources from 2013 to 2023 and were analyzed using a bibliometric analysis approach. The bibliometric analysis included sources, authors, and accuracy derived from the keywords
"differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking," which were analyzed by the author and illustrated using the VOS Viewer software. Based on the study's results, it was found that there is a relationship between the term "differentiated" and the words "creative thinking, curriculum, teachers, and public junior high schools." Furthermore, the term "differentiated" is widely used in research on
"differentiated learning," including differentiation and its relation to creative thinking. This research was widely conducted in 2018-2019. Additionally, many other researchers have carried out research on differentiation in differentiating learning. Future researchers can choose data sources other than Google Scholar in PoP (Harzing) software during data collection to enhance this research in increasing aligned references regarding differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking.

INTRODUCTION
The mathematical abilities of students in the classroom learning process vary (Rahayu &
Khusna, 2022). Previous research has highlighted the importance of applying differentiated learning in the 21st-century learning process (Herwina, 2021). Furthermore, differentiated learning is currently applied in the independent curriculum (Faradi, 2022). Differentiated learning is a learning approach that adapts to students' strengths and learning needs using independent learning strategies (Wahyuni, 2022). Indicators of differentiated learning include content, processes, products, and the learning environment or climate in the classroom (Wahyuningsari et al., 2022). It involves adjusting the content, processes, products, and learning environments to meet student learning needs.
In learning mathematics in the 21st century, students must have 4 C skills, which include critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity (Indrawati et al., 2019). The ability to think creatively is the ability of students to discover new things by connecting previously known information to solve problems (Hidayah et al., 2020). Mathematical creative
thinking is the ability of students to create new, uncommon, and original ways of solving problems that lead to correct results (Andiyana, 2018). Indicators of mathematical creative thinking include fluency, flexibility, elaboration, and originality (Suherman & Vidákovich, 2022).
Fluency refers to the ability to answer questions quickly and accurately, flexibility refers to the ability to solve problems in various ways, elaboration is the ability to provide detailed solutions, and originality is the ability to provide answers based on one's own thinking (Susilawati et al., 2020).
In the learning process, teachers must develop creative thinking skills to choose innovative and varied learning methods (Putri & Azhar, 2022). The development of creative thinking is central to the world of mathematics education in the modern era (Susilawati et al., 2020). Thus, it is essential that students and teachers possess creative thinking abilities in the 21st century mathematics learning process.
Bibliometric analysis has the function of evaluating scientific research results, drawing maps of scientific fields, and looking for new scientific developments in certain fields (Effendy et al., 2021). Bibliometric analysis makes it easier for researchers to study bibliographic content and analyze citations from each article (Ajinegara & Soebagyo, 2022). Previous research related to bibliometric analysis has been carried out under the title "Mathematical Creative Thinking: A Literature Mapping with Bibliometric Analysis Using Vos Viewer." The study revealed widely used keywords regarding mathematical creative thinking ability (Rahayu, 2022). However, there has been no bibliometric analysis research on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking based on search results through Google Scholar. Referring to the data that suggests differentiated learning can fulfill students' learning needs and that the ability to think creatively must be possessed by students and teachers in the 21st century mathematics learning process, it is important to investigate bibliometric analysis of differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking. In this study, the author used Google Scholar as the main source of information, which is the world's source of scientific information (Rafika et al., 2017).
Many researchers use Google Scholar to get information (Husain, 2019). With Google Scholar scientific data, researchers can apply descriptive analysis methods and evaluative analysis methods. The source of data from Google Scholar in this study was used to get data and then analyze it. The novelty in this study was using the latest data from the last 10 years. The purpose of this study was to analyze publications on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking to contribute to the improvement of harmonized references.
METHOD
In this descriptive qualitative research, researchers apply a bibliometric approach.
Bibliometric analysis is an analysis that details the results of research in a structured manner taken from metadata in the form of papers, articles, and books (Marwantika, 2022). According to Alan Pritchard, bibliometric is the use of statistical methods in a way of reporting from article reviews regarding the search and grouping of information through publication literature reviews (Suharso et al., 2021). M analyze publications in certain fields using a statistical method that contains information related to publications called Bibliometric (Muhammad et al., 2022). This research stage begins with determining search keywords, then initial search results, then narrowing search results, then compiling data statistics, and data analysis using VOS Viewer software.
The assigned search keyword is "Differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking. The initial search uses PoP (Harzing) software. Software PoP (Harzing) is software used to select, elaborate, and present quotes (Noeraida & Noorseto, 2020). Software PoP (Harzing) is used in the search for p data there is dated January 24, 2023 with the keywords differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking. The selected data number in PoP software (Harzing) is google scholar. Narrowing of search results is done by verifying the selected form in VOS Viewer software. The preparation of statistical data in this study uses the results of term co-occurrence maps in VOS Viewer software. The data obtained is mapped using
network, overlay, and density visualizations using VOS Viewer. Then researchers analyzed the data obtained regarding "Differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking."
Researchers searched based on the keyword "Differentiated Learning and Mathematical Creative Thinking". For data review, in all references indexed and released from 2013 to 202 3 with a total of 200 documents to obtain articles with the most recent year. The types of documents obtained by researchers in the form of articles, journals, and papers are then stored in RIS and CSV data formats.
Bibliometrics is done with the VOS viewer application (version 1.6.12). The data type used is to create a term co-occurrence map from text data. The data source used comes from searching through PoP software which is saved in RIS format. Extracted fields based on title and abstract. The calculation method chosen is binary counting. Then the map presented is in the form of network visualization, overlay visualization, and density visualization.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
There are 200 papers on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking based on search results through PoP software (Harzing) from google scholar search sources. Search results are research in the last 10 years, namely from 2013 to 2023. From the search results t 1 0 top articles ranked 1 to 10 from PoP software (Harzing) can be a source of information about differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking in Table 1.

Search results through PoP (Harzing) software regarding differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking are saved in RIS format. After that the data is converted into the form of network visualization maps, overlay visualizations, and density visualizations through VOS Viewer software. Figure 1 below is a visualization of the network.
Figure 1. Network Visualization
Figure 1 is a network visualization, network issue indicates the relationship of words with words connected to it, in the visualization there is an interconnection path in the VOS Viewer application where the lines in differentiated words are more clearly visible of others. In the research studied, the word "differentiated" was associated with creative thinking, curriculum, teachers, and public junior high schools. So, it can be concluded that network visualization signifies the relationship of the word "differentiated" with the words connected to it and the word "differentiated" is widely used in "differentiated learning" research.
In addition to network visualization map maps, there are overlay visualizations of differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking. In Figure 2 below is an overlay visualization map.
Figure 2. Overlay Visualization
In Figure 2, the overlay visualization shows the spread followed by year. Figure 2 shows that 2020, which is yellow, is a differentiated word, its meaning is related to the word differentiated, widely used by researchers in recent research, especially in research on learning Differentiated and creative thinking mathematics. Research on differentiated learning and its relation to creative thinking, can be seen in Figure 2, that the research was carried out in 2018-2019.
After network visualization maps and overlay visualizations, there is density visualization through VOS Viewer software about differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking. Figure 3 is a density visualization map.
Figure 3. Density Visualization
In Figure 3, which is a density visualization there is the brightest light in the word differentiated. So, it can be said that the word differentiated in m differentiated learning research has been done by many other researchers.
Based on network visualization maps, overlay visualizations, and density visualizations through VOS Viewer software regarding differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking, the keywords that are widely discussed are differentiated, thinking creative, curriculum, teachers, and public junior high schools. The results of a previous study entitled
"Mathematical Creative Thinking: A Literature Mapping with Bibliometric Analysis Using Vos Viewer" showed that the dominant keywords related to research on mathematical creative thinking skills were " creativity, thinking, mathematical thinking, mathematical problems, processes, children, abilities, ideas, development, reasoning, classes, people" (Rahayu, 2022). In the study, there are similarities in keywords in data search, namely "mathematical creative thinking" which can support this research. There are differences in research results with similar studies that have been done before. This is due to the difference in keywords used in data search, namely differentiated learning and in this study using the latest paper sources that published in the last 10 years from 2013 to 2023.
CONCLUSION
Based on the results of searching data through PoP software regarding differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking, it shows that there are top 10 articles published from 2021 to 2023 published in a different journal that can be a reference for future researchers. Based on the results of network visualization maps, overlay visualizations, and density visualizations using VOS Viewer software regarding differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking of keywords that Much discussed are differentiated, creative thinking, curriculum, teachers, and public junior high schools. The results of this study show that the relationship between the word "differentiated" with the words "creative thinking, curriculum, teachers, and public junior high schools" and the word "differentiated" is widely used in research "differentiated learning", differentiated, and related to creative thinking Nyak was conducted in 2018-2019, and the word differentiated in differentiated learning research has been carried out by many other researchers. Researchers can then choose data sources other than google scholar on PoP software (Harzing) in data collection to refine this research in increasing harmonized references on differentiated learning and mathematical creative thinking.
