What is creative thinking? Creative thinking is the ability to
effectively participate in the process of finding innovative and effective
solutions, acquiring new knowledge, developing, evaluating and
improving ideas aimed at effective expression of imagination.
Creative thinking helps us find unusual solutions to problems.
However, we should not confuse this with critical thinking, but rather as
"brothers" who help us find complementary solutions to impossible
problems.
In the course of teaching, the student is required to solve scientific
problems or social problems, to express creative ideas in writing or
visually, according to the assessment model of creative thinking. During
the teaching process, in the evaluation of creative thinking, attention is
paid to the competence of developing various ideas, evaluating and
improving creative ideas.
Students of a higher educational institution can fully demonstrate
their creative thinking skills in a comfortable environment. If students have
a feeling of failure, fear, stuttering from incorrect expression of ideas, and
criticism, in such a situation, it will not be possible for them to effectively
form or develop creative thinking skills. It is possible to successfully form
the ability of creative thinking in students only by turning creativity into
oden.
* In this process, the methods and tools used in evaluating the skills
of creative thinking and the thorough understanding of the content of the
subject by them are important.
