The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Mathematical Educational Software on the creativity and academic achievement in male students in the fifth grade of primary school in Tehran. The design of the study was quasi-experimental and according to the nature of the theme, its objectives and hypotheses were applied ones. The study population consisted of all male students in the fifth grade in district 1 in Tehran in 2015-2016 and the statistical sample of the study included 60 male students in the fifth grade of Azadegan primary school. Who were selected using convenient sampling technique and were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Software education and regular classroom education were used for the experimental and control group, respectively. In order to assess the subjects, Abedi Test of Creative Thinking and a researcher-made academic achievement test (pre-and post-test) were used. Data analysis was performed using analysis of covariance. Based on the obtained results, the first hypothesis is confirmed and it was concluded that educational software has a positive impact on the academic achievement in mathematics in male students. According to the obtained results, the second hypothesis is confirmed and it can be concluded that educational software has a positive impact on the creativity of the male students in the fifth grade of primary school in mathematics and its components. The results of the study showed that Mathematical Educational Software has a positive impact on the creativity and academic achievement in male students in fifth grade of primary school.
