Abstract

Creativity is one of the most emphasized competencies in education. Despite the consensus on its importance, the concept of creativity is understood differently in various cultures. This study presents selected aspects of research on the perception of creativity among Czech and American art students in a joint online class. The project was realized by Art Based Research (ABR) method during the winter semester 2022/23 at KVKTT PdF, UHK, with 11 Czech students and 10 American students of Bc. studies. The project findings show different evaluations of creativity, self-efficacy, and creativity of artworks between the two groups. They make visible the formative influence of cultural context and education on creativity, even within the art discipline. The chosen method demonstrates the possibilities of action research, which, through the process, enables the participants' knowledge to be shaped through active participation. The mutual confrontation or overlapping of different concepts of creativity thus offers inspiration for teaching creative disciplines.
