“…Students learning outcomes are not only influenced by the learning model but influenced by other important variables such as creative thinking ability (CTA) that can influence students learning outcomes as in [4]. The ability to think creatively is an individual mental process that produces effective, imaginative, aesthetic, flexible, integration, succession, and effective differentiation in various fields to solve a problem as in [5].…”

Abstract-This research aimed to analyze: the effect of problem based learning model on student's problem solving ability; the effect of creative thinking ability on student's problem solving ability and interaction between learning model and creative thinking ability in increasing student's problem solving ability. This research was a quasi-experimental design with two group pre-test post-test design. Experimental group taught by problem based learning model consist of 40 students and control group taught by conventional learning consist of 40 students. The data were analyzed by two ways of variances. Statistical test with 0.05 significant levels showed that: student's problem solving ability that taught by problem based learning model were greater than the conventional learning; problem solving ability group of students that have high creative thinking ability were greater than the students that have low creative thinking ability; there were interaction between learning model and creative thinking ability in increasing student's problem solving ability; the role of creative thinking ability in increasing student's problem solving ability on experimental group were greater than on control group.

“…For girls, related to two of the academic subject areas (Social Studies and English) and fluencyrelated to natural science and mathematics. In a similar study conducted by Nami, Marsooli, and Ashouri [20] among 242 randomly sampled students, the study revealed a positive strong correlation between these two variables (creative thinking and students' academic performance). The researchers concluded they had 99 percent confidence that there is positive significance between creativity and academic achievement and higher levels of creativity for students increase their academic achievement.…”

Aims:This study sought to explore the moderating role of gender in the relationship between creative thinking and academic performance in English Language and Mathematics among Junior High School students in the Aboom Circuit, Cape Coast. Study Design: The design for the study is correlational espousing the quantitative approach. The study was guided by two research hypotheses, which were tested using Pearson Product-Moment Correlation and Andrew F. Hayes Moderation Process. The instruments for the data collection were Kumar, Kemmler and Holman (1997) Creativity Styles Questionnaire-Revised (CSQ-R) and standardised-type test developed by experts in the various subject areas. Inuusah et al.; JESBS, 31(4): 1-10, 2019; Article no.JESBS.51413 2 Results: The study revealed significant relationship between creative thinking and academic performance of students (English Language: r=.432, n=140, p=0.05, p=.003, 2-tailed; Mathematics: r=.401, n=140 p=0.05, p=0.000, 2-talied). The study further revealed that gender moderated significantly in the relationship between creativity and academic performance . As such, male respondents had higher creative thinking effect in English Language and Mathematics than female respondents (b=.371, t=4.608, CI [.212, .530; b=.219, t=2.286, CI [.030, .407]). Conclusion: Creative thinking indeed relates to performance, as such, it was recommended that creative thinking should be nurtured among all students in J.H.S. In addition, stakeholders in education should consider including creative thinking in the curriculum and pay special attention to nurturing creative think in female students so that they could match up with their male counterparts.
