Abstract

This study assessed the efficacy of creativity-based instructional model on scientific attitude in Basic science and technology among pupils. The study adopted the quasi-experimental design of non-equivalent control group. A sample of 244 pupils (135 males and 109 females) was drawn for the study using a multistage sampling procedure. The instruments used for data collection was the Scientific Attitude Assessment Scale (SAAS). Data collected were analyzed using mean to answer the research questions and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The findings of the study revealed that creativity-based instructional model significantly enhanced pupils’ scientific attitude. It was equally revealed that gender had no significant influence on pupils’ scientific attitude. Based on the findings and conclusions, it was recommended among others, that the use of Creativity-based Instructional Strategy should be encouraged and popularized among primary school teachers through workshops, conferences and seminars.
