The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between representation and creativity, and their influence on mathematical problem solving. As mathematical problem solving needs complex cognitive abilities and representation translations, there is a question that whether using a multimedia whiteboard system can better facilitate students to learn this type of mathematical problem solving. The result has found that students can perform well in mathematical problem solving if they can better utilize the tools supported by a multimedia whiteboard system to do multiple representations for their solutions. Our creativity analysis also found that students who can do multiple representations well for their solutions and criticisms would have higher elaboration ability in the creativity test. The finding concludes that multiple representation skills are strongly related to student's elaboration ability and are the key to mathematical problem solving.
