The research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using the generative learning model in sciences teaching on developing achievement, retention of learning and attitude towards the course of female intermediate school students, to achieve this goal, the study followed the semi- experimental approaches, the symbol consisted of (84) students from Al- Sail Al- Sageer Intermediate School in Taif, (42) students in the experimental group who studied using the generative learning model and (42) students in the control group studied in the usual way, the researcher prepared the teacher’s guide ,and the activity booklet, then built the scholastic achievement test and the attitude scale towards sciences, the data were statistically processed. The results of the study showed that there was a statistically significant differences at the level of (α ≤ 0.05) between the mean scores for both of the students' groups; in the post- application of the scholastic achievement test; the experimental group got the total mean (20.64 out of 30) while the control group got the total mean (15.29), in the delayed application of the scholastic achievement test; the experimental group got the total mean (20.4 out of 30) while the control group got the total mean (11.48), in the post- application of the attitude scale towards sciences; the experimental group got the total mean (141.90 out of 160) while the control group got the total mean (120.60), all the differences are statistically significant for the interest of the experimental group. The effect size of the generative learning model on the scholastic achievement (0.27) and the attitude towards sciences (0.19) was big. The researcher recommended some recommendations, that could contribute to the development and enrichment of science education. (Published abstract)
