Abstract

The research aimed to  reveal The Effect of Modified Learning Cycle Strategy (7E`S) Supported by Differentiation Activities in Teaching Home Economics  For Developing Creative Problem Solving Skills and Actively Open Minded Thinking for Talented preparatory female pupils stage, The research sample consisted of two groups (24) students as an Experimental  group and (25) students as an control  group at Talatharb preparatory school, Wasat Educational, Alexandria, The Research tools were testing the Creative Problem Solving Skills (preparation of the researchers) , the measure of Actively Open Minded Thinking (preparation of the researchers) ,and the quasi-experimental curriculum was followed,The results of the research resulted in the presence of statistically significant differences between the average scores of the female students of the experimental and control groups in the post-measurement of creative problem-solving skills and Actively open-minded thinking in favor of the female students of the experimental group. It also revealed the presence of statistically significant differences between the average scores of the female students of the experimental group in the pre- and post-measurements of Creative Problem Solving Skills for problems and Actively open-minded in favor of the post measurement. There is also no statistically significant difference between the average scores of the experimental group students in the post and follow-up measurements of creative problem solving skills and Actively open-minded and their total sum, There is also no statistically significant difference between the average scores of the experimental group in the post and follow-up measurements of the skills of creative problem solving, and Actively open-minded.
