Creativity

3. Mathematical Creativity
● Creativity is the ability to produce novel and original work.
● Mathematical Creativity is the process that results in
unusual and insightful solutions to a given problem,
irrespective of the level of complexity.
● Mathematical Creativity is observed when one generates non
standard solution for a problem which may not be solved by using
standard method.

9. Ways to Stimulate Mathematical Creativity
● Teachers of Mathematics must know and internalise the
creative ways of Teaching and for the same they must get

10. ● Well equipped Mathematics room/laboratory, free and
flawless discussion on mathematical issues/problems,
optimum facilities and time to deal peculiar and new
mathematical problems/situations can yield Creative
Process and Creative Environment.
● Developing creative style of self study among the
mathematics learners.
Ways to Stimulate Mathematical Creativity

11. ● Utilisation of different methods of teaching such as
Brain Storming, Group Discussion, Buzz Session,
Seminar, Symposium, Interview, Panel discussion,
Debate, Cooperative Learning besides the traditional
methods specially Laboratory, Inductive - Deductive,
Analytic - Synthetic, Lecture Demonstration, etc
