Abstract: The concept of creativity has different meaning and interpretations for different people. The showing of the pendulum has in fact made the word creativity surprisingly popular. In one form or another, there is a worldwide trend which shows great concern about creativity. Creativity gives competitive edge that any field is striving to achieve. It allows viewing and solving problems more openly and with innovation. It opens the mind. A society that has lost touch with its creative side is an imprisoned society, in that generations of people may be closed minded. It broadens perspectives and can help overcome prejudices. The understanding of the nature of creativity and its development in schools and colleges should be relatively an important aspect of education.
