Creativity

[block_title title=”Creativity”][/block_title]Creativity is a phenomenon whereby something new and valuable is formed. The created item may be intangible (such as an idea, a scientific theory, a musical composition or a joke) or a physical object (such as an invention, a printed literary work, or a painting). As an illustration, one definition given by Dr E. Paul Torrance (American psychologist who specialized in creativity research) in the context of assessing an individual’s creative ability, described it as ‘a process of becoming sensitive to problems, deficiencies, gaps in knowledge, missing elements, disharmonies, and so on; identifying the difficulty; searching for solutions, making guesses, or formulating hypotheses about the deficiencies: testing and retesting these hypotheses and possibly modifying and retesting them; and finally communicating the results.’
