We mainly adopt action research approach and the points of Creativity Assessment Packet (CAP) as the auxiliary to proceed with the research. The research tools include Test of Divergent Thinking, Test of Divergent Feeling, the teaching observation records, and the teaching notes. The quantification data analyzed the points before the test and after the test with t-test; the qualitative data were being analyzed and generalized to explore the creative performances of the students after taking “creative thinking performance art dancing courses.” The study subjects were the freshmen of the academic year 2011 of OO Junior High School in Kaohsiung. The 29-students accepted a weekly 45-minute teaching lesson lasted 10 weeks. The research findings are as follows:
1. Using dancing lessons is feasible in helping the students to have creative performance.

flexible, unique creativity, explicit, title, adventurous, curiosity, imagination, and challenging
creativities. The students’ creativity points in CAP show prominent differences, indicating that “creative

3. Teachers can effectively use the creative thinking teaching strategy with divergent guiding teaching,
which helps stimulate students’ creativity.
