Abstract

Purpose

To identify the characteristics of scientific literature, regarding teaching and learning creativity in higher education in the light of the systemic model of creativity as defined by Cszikszentmihalyi.

Methodology

This is a systematic review characterized by a mixed sequential exploratory review, with a transversal approach of descriptive literature, instrumentalized through bibliographic research, whose sampling was of the non-probabilistic, intentional type.

Findings

it is possible to identify, three dimensions of creativity: individual, domain and culture, and the most notable, the field, configured by the school element / environment and the relationships between student and teacher. The second most relevant dimension is that of the individual. The influence of the personality and the relational aspect of the individual is outstanding, translated by family ties in the analytical categories. In the culture/domain dimension, it was observed that there is a low production of studies that consider the influence of the cultural aspect in teaching creativity in higher education. It was found that, in the selected sample, only one study addressed the teaching and learning of creativity within the scope of the undergraduate management course, which indicates low interest in such studies.

Research limitations/implications

the systemic model of creativity was significant to enlighten the analysis of teaching creativity in higher education. There is little research focusing on teaching creativity in management.

Practical implications

undergraduate management courses willing to teach creativity as a necessary competency to foster innovation in organizations will benefit from knowing that it requires new teaching methods that connect the individual, the domain and the field in a systemic approach.

Originality/value

This study contributes to expanding the discussion of teaching and learning creativity in higher education, more specifically in the management area.
