<p> A principal goal of higher education is to prepare students for the real-world challenges they will encounter upon graduation in their everyday life, in their work and in society.

It is vital for online educators to know whether the strategies they use help students gain 21st-century skills. One skill that has been identified as important in the 21st century is creativity; however, a gap existed in the literature concerning whether online courses could help students to develop creativity. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine whether participation in online courses can help students develop creativity using asynchronous online discussions, textbooks, and teacher developed materials.

The future prospects of higher education are increasingly seen as linked to the future prospects of creativity.

This critique reflects a world-view rooted in Leavis's exposure to the conditions of technologised warfare while serving as a nursing orderly in the First World War.

Creativity can be described as the ability to generate new ideas and to combine existing ideas in new ways in order to find novel solutions to problems.

Design education should therefore include learning and teaching approaches which encourage knowledge sharing and these approaches should be based on the patterns of knowledge sharing of designers from the creative ind
