Advantages of Teaching Based on a Creative Approach

Abstract

This article explores the methodological principles of organizing creative and inventive learning in general secondary education, with a particular focus on the subject of “Technology.” It presents a scientifically grounded justification for applying creativity-based pedagogical principles to foster students’ divergent thinking, innovation-seeking behavior, and independent problem-solving skills. Each principle — including openness and freedom, individualization and differentiation, variability and alternatives, novelty and originality, problem-based learning, integration, and collaboration — is examined in depth with practical examples and pedagogical interpretations. The study highlights the necessity of applying creative pedagogical technologies such as TRIZ, project-based learning, and problem-based learning to stimulate students’ creative potential. The article argues that a well-structured implementation of these principles contributes to enhancing the quality of education and cultivating future inventors and innovators.
