Abstract

Teachers’ creativity plays a major role in determining success in teaching and learning process. This success can be identified through the learning outcome in which students possess the capability to use the foreign language in real life and achieve the 21st century learning skills. Research on teachers’ teaching creativity have been conducted world widely, however it is hardly found in the context of Indonesian schools. The purpose of this study was of two folds: first, to examine teachers’ perceptions on creativity in teaching, and second, to observe how this perception was reflected in the teaching and learning process. The study involved 12 English teachers from 6 schools, and used self-rated teaching creativity questionnaire, classroom observation sheet, anecdotal records, and in-depth interview. The data were analyzed descriptively based on Miles & Huberman qualitative data analysis procedures. The findings indicate that there was a notable discrepancy between what was perceived by the teachers and what was observed in the classroom. Teachers perceive themselves as creative, however based on classroom observation data, their efforts fall under the category of lack of creativity. This finding reveals a discrepancy between what teachers’ think and do in the classroom which may lead to the need for professional development program in creative teaching.
