Innovation starts with ideas of creative individuals.
Students need to synergize culture of creativity in
their daily activities so they can optimize human

less prominent.
Creative potential can be identified by the
instruments that are able to measure the creativity
of students.

INTRODUCTION
DEFINITIONS OF CREATIVITY
A pragmatic approach is concerned with the discovery of creativity and
understanding. (Sternberg 2007)
Overall innovation begins with creative ideas by individuals or in teams
and it is a starting point for innovation. (Amabile 1996)
Edward de Bono (1970) defines creativity as an effort to think through
a new lens to explore new alternatives in view of a phenomenon.
Creative individuals are normally able to see a particular thing the
same way as everybody else but their way of thinking works differently
(Wycoff 1995).
