Creativity refers to the phenomenon whereby a person creates something new (a product, a solution, a work of art, a novel, a joke, etc.) that has some kind of value

Examples of students’ creativity in classroom

Speaking: We are capable of producing sentences and even long texts that we have never heard or seen before. We are also able to create a story or make more enjoyable the existing one.

Compensation strategies (methods used for making up for lack of language in a communicative situation e.g. miming, drawing, paraphrasing used for getting meaning across) use creative and often imaginative ways of expression.

Solving mathematics or physics problem: you can find learners that have solved it in their own ways which may even look easier than the one taught by the teacher.

Carrying out an experiment: by assembling materials and sharing ideas to do well the given activity students proves that they are creative.

Importance of creativity.

Creative thinking is an important skill in real life. It is part of our survival strategies and it is a force behind personal growth and the development of culture and society.

Most people become more motivated, inspired or challenged if they can create something of value; if they feel that in some ways what they do and how they do it reflect who they are.

Creativity improves self-esteem as learners can look at their own solutions to problems and their own products and see what they are able to achieve.
