ABSTRACT

Creativity has always been a hot topic for researchers and practitioners. But on the ideal pulpit of different elds of creativity, I would admit that education is not in the rst position. The “gold medal” is given to arts. When we think of the golden age of different periods of the history of arts, it is quite easy to emphasize some very high dominant milestones. Think about humanism and renaissance or impressionism. If we recall the creativity of famous painters, architects, and sculptors, in this sense, we are in the middle of personal creativity. In its narrow sense, the focus is only the personal skills and talents, but using analytical assumption, the “sociocultural context” is a highly important issue. The “silver medal” is given to economics. The creative industry has a high added value to the economic and social growth as well not because of the evidently strong coherency between creativity and innovation. “Creative industries represent highly innovative companies with a great economic potential and are one of the Europe’s most dynamic sectors, contributing around 2.6% to the EU GDP, with a high growth potential, and providing quality jobs to around 5 million people across EU-27” (Green Paper 2010, pp. 2-3). It is worth to stress some economic-based concepts behind the progression of creative industry. Nevertheless, effectiveness, efciency, and quality come into prominence in the economics and education sector as well. From this point, it is only a small jump into a school, but before it, I need to mention that the “bronze medal” concerning creativity is given to sports. If we read the reports of different sporting events, especially regarding teamwork, we regularly face the following expression: creative teamwork and creative offensive football. It is a positive fact the personal sudden solutions and smart steps would guarantee success, but if t not coupled with creative teamwork, the victory is not secured.
