Students' Questioning and Creativity: How Are These Related?

University students must develop several higher-order skills along their higher education route. One of these fundamental skills is creativity. The practice of questioning is one of the modes to enhance creativity. In this paper, the authors illustrate how studentsâ€™ approaches to creativity can be linked to the types of questions they ask in Higher Education. Several teaching and learning strategies were implemented in a geology course and a chemistry course, at the University of Aveiro, Portugal, as a way of promoting studentsâ€™ questioning competence. The relationship between the kinds of questions asked and the studentsâ€™ approaches to creativity is analysed and discussed.
