Formation of The Creative Person

Abstract

The Russian educational system is currently experiencing significant changes. Among the courses for transitioning to an innovative, socially oriented type of economic development included in the Concept for Long-Term Socio-Economic Development of the Russian Federation by 2020 are strategic goals in the sphere of education: a transition from a system of mass education to continuous, individualized education for all students, as well as an emphasis on the development of creative, socially responsible individuals (Novoselova, P. N., 2013). Much research by philosophers, psychologists, and pedagogues has been dedicated to the problem of forming a creative individual.
