It goes without saying that students can learn and develop their creative potential if appropriate programs are used that successfully teach them the creative skills and operations necessary. However, mathematics in general and geometry in particular, by their own nature, have a lot of possibilities that can be used in developing creativity. The purpose of the present study was threefold: First, to identify the principles of preparing a suggested enrichment program in Euclidean geometry using dynamic geometry software to develop the mathematically gifted students’ geometric creativity in high schools; second, to develop an enrichment program based on the identified principles; third, to investigate the effectiveness of this program by testing it with high school students.

Other avenues for research may focus on students’ affective and emotional domains (e.g., self confidence, attitudes, and achievement motivation), and might as well include an analysis of gender-related individual differences.
