Four Educational Technology experts with Fine Art background from University of Ilorin validated the instrument for face and content validity. Pearson Product Moment Correlation statistics was used to test reliability of the instruments. Reliability coefficients of 0.88 and 0.74 were obtained for teachers and students questionnaire respectively. Three research questions were raised and two research hypotheses were formulated and tested using t-test at 0.05 level of significant. The result revealed that the originality and adaptation in creativity were rarely used by visual art teachers. Teachers’ mean shows that they used fluency and motivation in creativity sometime.

It is undoubtedly true that the Covid-19 pandemic has negatively impacted on the country’s educational system hence the forceful banned on social gathering which is very common and unavoidable to our traditional system of education in Nigeria and the country is lagging behind in terms of its capacity to switch to E-learning. Schooling system was suspended for a period of time which is against the claim that learning is a continuous process and should not be interrupted.
