Abstract : The study aimed to identify the effectiveness of training program based on fractals geometry to develop the skills of geometrical problem solving, mathematic and creative thinking for mathematic teachers in the middle year in Jeddah city. The researcher has prepared the training program based on fractals geometry to develop the skills of geometrical problem solving, mathematic and creative thinking and it was judged, she also made the study tools which includes: test of problem solving skills, test of mathematic thinking skills and using Torrance test of creative thinking, the tools validity and stability has been verified. The study sample consists of (46) teachers of middle year mathematics teachers, the researcher followed Quasi-experimental design approach while dividing the teachers into two groups: discipline and experiment, each group has (23) teachers. The tests have been previously applied to the two groups, and the researcher applied the training program to experimental group only, then the tests have been subsequently applied to both groups. By analyzing the data, there were differences with significant statistical differences on level less than 0.05 between the average of teachers grades from both groups, discipline and experimental, in the subsequent study for development of problem solving skills, creative thinking skills and mathematic thinking skills, on the basis that the training program which based on fractals geometry is independent variable, and problem solving skills, creative thinking skills and mathematic thinking skills are dependent variables. In light of these results, the researcher concluded that fractals geometry has an effect on problem solving skills, creative thinking skills and mathematic thinking skills for teachers, the researcher recommended the interested of fractals geometry to be included in different curricula commensuration with each educational level, and the interesting of making training for teachers, informing them of new topics in their fields which work on engineering problem solving skills and mathematic creative thinking. The researcher also recommended making the following studies: training program based on fractals geometry for development of geometrical problem solving skills and creative and mathematic skills for students in different years, studying the effect of teaching fractals geometry for development of students trends of mathematics of different educational levels.
