Creative thinking as a complex and multidimensional phenomenon affects students' performance.

The purpose of study was to develop and validate the interactive model of creativity education in the experimental sciences course of the first high school and its effect on fostering students' creativity through a combined study in the academic year of 2018-19.

The present study is a mixed study consisting of two parts. The first part was designing a creative learning model for the experimental science class, and the second part was about developing creativity. In the qualitative section, the semi-structured interview method was used. In a small section, the aim of the experiment was to determine the effect of the designed pattern on the creativity of high school students; using a semi-experimental design (pre-test, post-test with control group) from the first year high school students of Karaj (75 people) were selected as the statistical sample. The interactive pattern of creativity training in both groups and in two pre-test and post-test phases were compared with the Torrance Creativity Scale tool for measuring creativity for the experimental science course. To analyze and analyze data in the qualitative part after implementing discussions on paper, open coding (reading line by line data, extracting basic concepts and sentences, forming categories and primary classes), central coding (data classification, sub-category identification, final class formation) Selective coding (linking categories to each other) Categories were extracted. In the quantitative section, descriptive and inferential statistics were used. In the descriptive statistics section, the mean and standard deviation were the smallest and largest, and in the inferential statistics section, one-variable covariance analysis and follow-up test were used to compare the pairs of groups with the help of SPSS-21 software.

In the qualitative part, the research results led to the interactive design of creativity training, and the results in the quantitative part of the research showed that the designed pattern has led to the cultivation of creativity in the tested group.

It is suggested that the interactive pattern of designed creativity training be used as an appropriate way for students to achieve creativity.

The aim of present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the clinical creativity therapy model (CCTM) on attention and memory in children with dyscalculia in Shahinshahr and suburbs.

This research was a quasi-experimental, pre-test, post-test, experimental and control group. Statistical population included all students with dyscalculia in primary school in ShahinShahr city in the academic year 2018 that were referred to the center of learning disorders of Sotoodeh of ShahinShahr city. A sample of 30 people was selected via random sampling method and subjected to two groups of 15 people. For the experimental group, a course of clinical creativity therapy model was held during 20 sessions and for 20 hours. The tools used in this research are Wechsler's intelligence test for children, the Torrance creativity test (visual form), N-Back working memory test, Stroop's test. Data were analyzed using SPSS-23 software.

The results of covariance analysis indicated that there was a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in the N-Back memory test and the attention of Stroop and Wechsler 4 and Torrance creativity (visual form) after teaching the clinical creativity therapy model. It was seen that the memory, attention and creativity of the experimental group increased compared to the control group.

Overall, the results indicated that the clinical creativity therapy model (CCTM) had an effect on memory, attention and creativity of children with dyscalculia in the experimental group.

The present study qualitatively analyzes the first grade math textbooks of the United States, Japan and Iran based on the Guilford Creativity Index, Gardner Multiple Intelligences and William Rumi Learner Engagement Index. The problem of research is the difficulty and complexity of the first grade Iranian mathematics textbook for students. The study population includes the first mathematics books of the United States, Japan and Iran in 1397-98. Analyzes show that in the first Iranian mathematics textbook, based on the Guilford Creativity Index, divergent thinking has received less attention and no attempt has been made to cultivate students' creativity in the existing content. The level of attention to logical-mathematical intelligence in the content of the first mathematics book in Iran (with a frequency of 11) is very low. Mathematical concepts of Iranian books are more than the mental capacity of learners at this age, which confuses learners and thus leads to reverse performance in the learning process (13 <1).

School as an institution that has the most valuable time of human life is very effective in the emergence of creative behaviors. Therefore, creating a suitable environment and a good environment for the growth and creativity of learners is felt as a necessary need more than before in our country, especially in the elementary school. The aim of this study was to design a creative school model for the elementary school and to validate it from the perspective of specialists. The research method was a combination of sequential exploratory (qualitative-quantitative).The research method in this qualitative phase was comparative-documentary and in the quantitative phase was descriptive-survey research using Delphi technique. Sampling method was purposeful in both phases. Therefore, in the first phase of the research, 283 written documents (documents, articles and books) related to the subject were analyzed based on inductive content analysis using ATLAS.ti software and the approach of NCT. In the second phase, a questionnaire containing 12 questions which was designed by the researcher was distributed among experts in the curriculum and creativity field. Data were analyzed using Excel 2010 and SPSS 19. The results of the study showed that the creative school has six dimensions and three components. The dimension of creative curriculum contained nine components, the dimension of creative students contained three components; the dimension of creative family had five components; the dimension of creative teacher contained five components; the dimension of creative principal contained four components; the dimension of creative culture contained four components. Moreover, the results of model validation based on the opinion of curriculum experts and the creativity was desirable.

Employee creativity and the use of their opinions are the most important factors influencing the development of organizations and act as the antidote to laziness and weakness in the organization. Meanwhile, various factors affect employees' creativity, including workplace ostracism and organizational silence.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of organizational silence in the relationship between workplace ostracism and employees' creativity at Lorestan University. Research

The present descriptive-exploratory research is applied in terms of purpose and is based on the deductive research and positivism paradigm in term of philosophy. The statistical population of the study was 440 employees of Lorestan University. Based on Morgan's table, a sample of 205 people was selected by stratified random sampling. In order to measure the variables of the research, the (Ferris et al’s, 2008) workplace ostracism Questionnaire, (Torrance’s, 2001), creativity Questionnaire and the (Bouradas and Maria’s, 2019) organizational silence Questionnaire were used and Their reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha. For data analysis, structural equations modeling and PLS software have been used.

Research findings show that workplace ostracism has a positive relationship with organizational silence and a negative relationship with employee's creativity.

The overall results of the study show that workplace ostracism has a negative relationship with employee's creativity both directly and through organizational silence.
