ABSTRACT
This chapter begins with a discussion of scientific creativity and how it differs from science as traditionally taught in schools. Principles for teaching science supportive of creativity include teaching for understanding and conceptual change, using authentic scientific methodologies, and problem-based learning. The second section reviews the nature of mathematical creativity and strategies for teaching math using mathematical thinking. A number of examples of lessons that model mathematical thinking are shared. Next, an overview of creativity in engineering emphasizes design thinking. The chapter ends with an overview of general methodologies not yet addressed, including inductive methodologies, simulation and role-play, and question and discussion strategies.
