Abstract

This study focuses on creativity in Croatian language teaching and education, namely the creative techniques used and students’ and teachers’ perception of the importance of creativity. The research was conducted on the sample of 200 students of a vocational school in Osijek, their age ranging from 14 to 19, as well as on a smaller sample of five teachers of Croatian language. The results obtained in a survey shows that both the students and the teachers consider creativity quite significant in Croatian language teaching, but that the creative techniques are not frequently used. Several lessons were set up to teach students and teachers some techniques for creativity boost, which showed that the Croatian language lessons do not necessarily has to be boring, but filled with fantasy, humour, drawings and original ideas.
