Abstract: Creativity is an essential element required by today's society, a knowledge society in which technology, that is in constant change, offers many possibilities for education in terms of teaching, learning and evaluation. The practice has shown that games have an important formative- educational role and interactive teaching strategies are recognized as effective ways to stimulate the creative potential of students. On the other hand, the teaching - active learning, in the learning context created by teacher, aims to develop thinking, stimulate creativity, develop interest in learning, the student taking an active role in education. Game-based learning doesn’t exclude the traditional methods but with them allows students to obtain a positive learning experience leading to their increased motivation for learning.The current trend in the use of digital games has emerged recognizing their educational value especially when using custom games created directly by teachers. Teacher's creativity is manifest in the way they created the learning resources and how it chooses to expose them.
