Resumo: Creativity is a key element for development and innovation in all areas of expertise domains. Years of misconceptions led to the belief that creativity is an ability only a few possess, particularly individuals from the arts. This assumption is far from the truth: we are all creative. We have different creative styles, but in all domains creativity takes part. Science is one of the richest fields where we can find it. This paper brings a reflection upon creativity in science, defining it, drawing similarities between the creative process and the scientific method, while arguing the importance of recognising creativity as a fundamental piece of past, present, and future scientific discoveries; but also in every day scientific achievements.

Años de conceptos erróneos llevó a la creencia de que la creatividad es una habilidad que sólo algunos poseen, en particular los artistas. Sin embargo esta supo sición está lejos de la realidad: todos somos creativos. Tenemos diferentes estilos, pero en todos los ámbitos participa la creatividad. La ciencia es uno de los campos más ricos donde la encontramos. Este artículo aporta una reflexión sobre la creatividad en la ciencia, definiéndola, trazando semejanzas entre el proceso creativo y el método científico, mientras argumenta la importancia de reconocer la creatividad como pieza fundamental en los descubrimientos científicos del pasado, presente y futuro, como también en los logros científicos cotidianos.Universidad de ConcepciónDigitUMaGarcês, Soraia2021-09-08T13:11:09Z2018-01-01T00:00:00Z2018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.13/3620engGarcês, S.
