THE IMPORTANCE OF CREATIVE TASKS IN PHYSICS LESSONS

Abstract

Everyone possesses curiosity and the desire to satisfy it. Each of us can become a scientist. Not only children, artists, musicians and writers are creative, but also scientists, businessmen etc. thinking creatively. Therefore, students should be more involved in the learning process, allowed to ask, to express their views and to think and act creatively. Pupils can learn by both reading and listening to what the other people say, as well as they can also learn by exploring - performing an experiment. This paper tries to understand what is creativity, and whether creative tasks are needed during physics lessons. This work explores what other authors have discussed about creativity as well as seek what is creativity and shares personal experience in the selection and implementation of a variety of creative tasks in school in physics lessons.
