As such, creativity is certainly an important aspect of technical and vocational education and training, in which design and innovation are among the core subjects. As the perspective that enhancement of creativity can be carried out through learning and training is accepted, the design and development of instructional modules plays a significant role in enhancing the creativity levels of both trainers and trainees, especially in the field of education. Teaching and learning resources in varying degrees of depth and difficulty that cater for the individual, groups and organisations can be prepared.
