Alright, we pretty much covered the "creative" definition, so in the next lesson, let's take a look on how Novelty, Creativity, Innovation and Invention has everything to do with Creative Ideas. Here are some notes from the slides :
"When a child stains paper with colours or rhymes words delighting his parents by his creativity, these activities are original only in the sense that the child learns skills that are new for him."
Novelty is the quality of being new. Although it may be said to have an objective dimension (e.g. a new style of art coming into being, such as abstract art or impressionism) it essentially exists in the subjective perceptions of individuals.
and also, there divided into 2 groups :
Subjective Novelty - is the perception of something as being new by an individual person or a group of persons;
Objective Novelty - is something that is new for all humanity in its development through ages. It is unlikely, however, that even the most knowing and knowledgeable person boldly say that he knows everything that was before and take liberty to judge things from this standpoint.
Originality is not a decisive feature of creative work and Novelty in creativity is always based on what has been created before.
Now let's take a look at..
Defining "Innovation"
Innovation is the process of making improvements by introducing something new, the realization of a creative idea in a social context. It could be a new technology, a new way of doing things, or an improvement of an old technology with better system and less use of human energy for example.
They are divided into 2 main group, there are evolutionary innovations and revolutionary innovations.
and finally :
Inventors are those who take existing knowledge and create new ideas.
There are four types of creativity. Creative people fall into these four catagories:
1.Aesthetic Organizers.
2.Boundary Pushers — those who take an existing idea and push it a little further.
3.Inventors — those who take existing knowledge and create new ideas — the Edisons of this world.
4.The rarest group: Boundary Breakers — the Leonardos and the Copernicuses.
(A paraphrasing of Elliot Eisner (1933-), American art educator.)
so which one are you? :)
Defining "Novelty"

Now let's take a look at..
Defining "Creativity"
The generation of new ideas or a new way of doing things. Yeap. We've talked about it. Which leads us to...Defining "Innovation"
Innovation is the process of making improvements by introducing something new, the realization of a creative idea in a social context. It could be a new technology, a new way of doing things, or an improvement of an old technology with better system and less use of human energy for example.
