Abstract: This paper records my conceptions of and search for the meanings of creativity. In the first part, I outline multiple meanings and processes of creativity I came across in the literature. In the second part, I share with readers my conceptions of creativity in education. In addition, I delineate my views and personal experiences in the teaching of creativity in an Asian context. I conclude the paper by examining some Japanese and Singaporean aspirations of nurturing creativity among the young. Also included are some tools for the teaching of creativity and implications for creativity education.
