All data were gathered through questionnaires then analyzed and interpret through one-sample t-test and regression analysis. The data indicate that teachers employed a high extent of pedagogical approaches, including questioning, inferencing, visualizing, and analyzing. However, their creative thinking level in terms of divergent thinking, problem-finding, and idea generation all attained a moderate extent.
