Creative Interest and Creative Activity in Art Education

Summary/Abstract: Many scientists, who have been conducting investigations into the problems of interest focus their attention on the matters of professional interests. Not enough investigations have been conducted into the formation of interests within creative activity in the pedagogical process. Creative interest generates as a result of the process of creative activity interest and develops accordingly to particular levels that correspond with the levels of creative activity. Creative activity proceeds through five levels: imitation; creative imitation; imitation in creative activities; transformation and creativity. Each level of interest corresponds to a particular level of creative activity. Interest proceeds from primeval interest to incentive interest and then to cognitive interest that perfects itself in the course of creative activity and results in the next stage – creative cognitive interest. The most advanced level – creative interest. In the article distinctive features of all levels of the development of interest have been considered and ways of dynamics of the development of a creative person have been described.
