Conditions for the development of creativity – individual and environmental perspective

The article aims to present the concept of creativity and creation in the context of its deliberate support in the educational environment. It presents the determinants of this process from four perspectives: individual determinants, environmental determinants, the course of the process and product features. The importance of the environment for the development of creativity, pointing to the relational and contextual conditioning and understanding of creativity, is also addressed in the paper.
