One of the goals of any educational system should be fostering creative persons. Creativity is a dynamic property of the human mind that can be enhanced and should be valued. It can be either strengthened or deteriorated. Therefore, it is important to study creativity and determine its characteristics.
Creativity is traditionally supposed to attribute to art and literature, but nowadays doing meaningful science has
also been considered as a creative act. In areas of art and literature, it is generally enough to create an extraordinary
and novel work, but a creative scientific idea needs not only to be novel but also useful (Neumann, 2007
Technological advances in today society has been owed to creativity of scientists and mathematicians. The critical
role of these creative mathematicians, who have been able to create new mathematical insights and ideas, is so much
apparent that there is no need to be emphasized. However, study of processes of their creative thinking is valuable.
