Giving learners the tools and skills they need to navigate the constantly shifting and unpredictable world they live in is essential in the context of modern education. In educational contexts, creativity is becoming recognized as a critical attribute that is encouraged in curricula as well as classroom instruction. Teachers are becoming more aware of how crucial it is to include contemporary technologies in their lesson plans to foster students’ creative growth. The objective of this study is to evaluate and comprehend the effects of technological advancements, evolving workplaces, political situations, and unstable economic conditions on the promotion of creativity in educational settings by a thorough analysis of previous studies. It is essential to recognize that these studies have limitations, however. A few of the main issues that surface is an unclear implementation strategy, a need for more knowledge about the study design, and an inadequate measuring technique.
