Facilitating creativity in the curriculum 

Thinking, acting, or creating in a way that is original and valued by oneself or others is called creativity. Anything can be considered creative even if it was not created by you or anybody else in history. One can discover creativity at home or in school, just as easily as in the arts or sciences (Long et al., 2022). 

The usual creative process consists of five steps:

• Preparation: Developing an interest in new concepts.

• Incubation: Establishing connections subconsciously.

• Insight: Understanding has been attained. That "Aha" moment.

• Evaluation: Selecting the significance of the insight.

• Explanation: Intellectual insight manifested physically

Creativity and curriculum are interrelated and mutually supportive (Fan & Cai, 2020) . 

Creativity can enhance the curriculum by: 

• Providing students with opportunities to explore, experiment, and express their own ideas (Fan & Cai, 2020) .

• Encouraging students to apply their knowledge and skills in new and different ways (Fan & Cai, 2020) .

• Developing students’ critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills (Fan & Cai, 2020) .

• Motivating students to learn and enjoy the learning process (Fan & Cai, 2020) .
