Creativity is vital for innovation. It comprises imagination, inventiveness, critical thinking and problem-solving skills – all of which are important goals for education. How can teachers nurture creative problem-solving and analytical skills, whether in science and technology courses, in the arts, or through new interdisciplinary approaches to curricula?
