Not... quite what I'm saying, though I think I see that it looks like that's my implication. I'm not good at brevity sometimes, my fault.
I don't think we understand creativity any more than we understand talent. And that's a whole 'nother discussion, that probably won't happen in here. For the purposes of this topic, I'm saying that an understanding of science opens up a lot of avenues of growth for a student, and the opportunity to be creative and to learn how to express that creativity opens up other avenues, and combining those two (in my mind, not really separate) areas opens up even more avenues. So teach everything.
