he aim of the research is to identify the effectiveness of technology learning centres in developing some creative thinking skills among 8 deaf middle schoolers (1st grade). The researcher used the one-group quasi-experimental designs in which both groups were pretested and post tested. The prescribed environment- al unit for first-grade middle school students was taught in the first semester using technology learning centers. Torrence Test of Creative Thinking (Figures –Image B) was administered to participants. There is a statistically significant difference at the 0.01 level between the average levels of hearing-impaired students in the first year of the middle grades in favor of the posttest.
