Creativity

 Creativity is a phenomenon whereby something new and somehow valuable is formed. The created item may be intangible (such as an idea, a scientific theory, a musical composition, or a joke) or a physical object (such as an invention, a literary work, or a painting). Scholarly interest in creativity involves many definitions and concepts pertaining to a number of disciplines: engineering, psychology, cognitive science, education, philosophy (particularly philosophy of science), technology, theology, sociology, linguistics, business studies, songwriting, and economics,  covering the relations between creativity and general intelligence,  mental and neurological processes, personality type and creative  ability, creativity and mental health; the potential for fostering  creativity through education and training, especially as augmented by  technology; the maximization of creativity for national economic  benefit, and the application of creative resources to improve the  effectiveness of teaching and learning
