Abstract
Due to globalization, developing countries’ companies have a growing need for creative thinking. Consequently, education systems should adjust to societal requirements and improve learning outcomes by incorporating teaching approaches that encourage creative thinking. A study involving eighteen public elementary school teachers (ESTs) aimed to identify their viewpoints regarding enhancing creative thinking and the roles played by home and school environments in developing students’ potential for creativity. The study uncovered seven themes, including the importance of creative thinking, the roles of teachers and the curriculum, teaching methods, challenges faced in implementation, the school environment, and the role of education department in promoting creative thinking. While acknowledging the importance of creative thinking, teachers lacked the essential skills to promote it efficiently. Additionally, creative thinking promotion in schools and the curriculum was inadequate. To address this issue, it is essential to train teachers, equip schools with appropriate resources, and enhance the curriculum to foster creative thinking in students.
