ABSTRACT
One of the terms essential to any understanding of education must be creativity. The word has come to denote a disposition of mind which is experimental, open, engaged, a particular kind of teaching and learning where the results cannot be comprehended in advance of the process, whether it be in mathematics, the sciences, the humanities or the arts. The word is indispensable in the vocabulary of all true education and, particularly, of aesthetic education. Isn’t the educated mind the creative mind? I would want to answer in the affirmative, yet in the teaching of the arts there is a problem.
