Abstract

Creativity is one of the essential skills that generate new solutions to problems. It responds to the needs of the new generationthrough the process of teaching-learning. While project-based learning (PBL) is among different major approaches that foster students’ creativity, it is not incorporated in the school curriculum at all levels. Bender (2012) asserts that PBL is a teaching method that helps learners face and address real-world problems effectively. It is the primary model of instruction recommended in the 21st century. This theoretical paper presents how creativity and PBL have an important place in the school curriculum. It also points out the roles played by instructors and learners to promote creative thinking using PBL, and the challenges they encounter. It finally provides the ways learners participate in this process in order to be more innovative, collaborative, and creative to solve current and future problems.
