Abstract	Creativity is a phenomenon that cannot be described in one sentence. One general model of creativity is the 4P Model, where the "P" stand for Person, Product, Process, and Place. Because creativity is a context related phenomenon, different tests for evaluating creativity have been developed in the last forty years, focusing for example on divergent thinking or on verbal associations. While in public understanding a creative person is working in the field of arts or literature, creativity plays an important role in natural sciences as well. Creativity can be seen as essential part of scientific work. Especially, problem solving and Nature of Science are closely related to creativity. Consequently, science education should include creative work by either teaching creativity or creativity teaching. Both aspects are necessary to let the students experience the importance of creative work in the natural sciences. In our presentation, we will discuss the relevance of creativity in science education and present results of a qualitative interview study among German chemistry teachers.
