(krē-ā'tĭv) pronunciation
adj.
  1. Having the ability or power to create: Human beings are creative animals.
  2. Productive; creating.
  3. Characterized by originality and expressiveness; imaginative: creative writing.
n.

In my understanding is creativeis related the ability to create something that is the result from thoughts, expression or anything that is regarded as creative. Creativity and creative acts are therefore studied across several disciplines - psychology, cognitive science, education, philosophy (particularly philosophy of science), technology, theology, sociology, linguistics,business studies, and economics. As a result, there are a multitude of definitions and approaches.
