Sažetak
Contemporary society, faced with unpredictable and unstoppable changes stimulated by globalization processes, is all the more recognizing the importance of creativity in all human activities, particularly in the field of education. During the period from the year 2000 until the present day significant changes in the educational system, particularly in higher education subsystems, have become part of the education policy of almost all European countries. In the Croatian higher education system, the impressions on the implementations of the Bologna Process range from complete questioning to (un)critical advocating. Although it is clear that pedagogical, didactical and methodical issues on the Bologna Process implementation in the Croatian higher education system have been marginalized, the conception that the Bologna Process supports teaching directed towards the student that essentially changes the role of the student as well as the role of the higher school teachers who are faced with demands for new competition that arise from their professional role. In that context, creativity represents a significant competence that demands contemporary education from the higher school teachers, which is placed as a challenge to the new paradigm whose basis consists also of, among other things, the changes towards creative teaching. Proceeding from the fact that the higher school teacher's creativity is the basic presumption for developing creativity in students, the starting point for stimulating changes is made up of advancing the quality of higher school teaching and stimulating the continual professional development of the higher school teacher through the life-long system of education directed towards the development of creativity in students with the aim of freeing their creative potential through which they will realize active involvement and competition in the work market after having completed their studies.
