Abstract
A stated goal of many classroom teachers is the ability to solve new and different teaching problems in innovative ways. The ability to think creatively plays an important role in acquiring knowledge. In elementary and secondary education, creative qualities have been neglected in both testing and teaching. Students are more often asked to produce work according to specifications set by their teachers, leaving no room for them to express their own creativity. Enhancement of classroom creativity and discouragement of imitative behaviors is necessary if creativity is to flourish within our pedagogical system (Gibson, 1976).
