  3. CALT “…the use of any language is inherently creative…” (Clarke, 2010: p.2) “Creativity does not happen inside people´s heads, but in the interaction between a person´s thoughts and a sociocultural context. It is a systemic rather than an individual phenomenon.“ (Csikszentmihalyi,M. 1996; p.23) “ Creativity is a natural function of intelligence of every individual that takes many forms, has different levels and draws from a variety of capacities …“ (Robinson,K. 2009; Csikszentmihalyi,M. 1996; Torrance 1970, Runco et al., 2010:362; Treffinger et al., 2002; Heindel and Furlong, 2000) “…people cannot betaught creativity but, instead, the right combination of personalcharacteristics and an encouraging environment could produce it…“(Csikszentmihalyi, 1996; Heindeland Furlong, 2000)
