achievement in science and technology courses and to compare 6-8th grade elementary school students according to gender,
grade level, and general creativity categories. For this purpose, Divergent Thinking Exercise, Scientific Creativity Test and
the Williams Scale were applied to the sample (N = 145), which was formed using the cluster sampling technique. The data
were analyzed via t-test, ANOVA and X2 statistical techniques. It is determined that general and scientific creativity scores
and academic achievement scores in science and technology course are positively related to each other. The mean general
creativity score of girls was found to be statistically significantly higher than that of boys, whereas there was no significant
