Digitally creative teachers are educators fit to handle challenges
Creativity is rarely connected to ICTs in school curricula, but covid-19 pandemic forced teachers to be creative to handle sudden changes.

Creativity is not the result of magical thinking, but a 21 century skill that can be nurtured from schools.
