Responsible Createlligence as Competence for the Future: an Integrative Approach

Education for creativity is a key issue for human and humane progress in the future. In order to illustrate the complexity of creativity as the highest form of intelligence Urban's Components Model of Creativity is shortly referred to and explained. Finally the components model is expanded into a capacious four-stage model structure framed and hold by an environmental, ecological scaffold. It seems necessary to conceptualise Responsible Createlligence as future competence embedded in such a comprehensive model in order not to limit creative education to a mere technical training or to ignore and neglect important personality aspects as well as societally bound conditions and influences, which affect responsible creative and intelligent thinking and acting as well as education (not only) for the gifted.
