The purpose of this contribution is to spotlight the factors that play a role in defining students' creativity, with a special emphasis on the relationship between creativity and imagination, studying collective models of creative collaboration. We present two case studies in which we have specifically worked with groups of students to create a collective project proposing methodologies of experimental work. In both cases, the collective creation favoured the development of individual creativity. http://pubs.sciepub.com/education/2/10/19/education-2-10-19.pdf creativity imagination co-creation process design
