policies, researches, and education institutions in various country. The
government works with many educators together, such as lecturers, students,
teachers, researchers in order to foster the quality of education by applying
creative learning and innovative teaching in their curricula, materials,
schools and its classes. A study mixed methods from various sources, such as literature
review, workshop, analysis of curricula, teachers survey, educational
stakeholder interview and cases study have been done to provide a better
understanding of what aspects are dealt to enhance creative learning and
innovative teaching. This essay will elaborate the major areas where effort and
improvement is needed to enable more creative learning and innovative teaching.

also supporting them for pedagogies purpose and assessment easily such as,
learning material sources from internet, learning media which is created using
software and some tools. In addition, it can be used to support interaction
between teachers, pupils and parents. Online education system can provide
parents access to pupils' learning materials and tasks, which will help them to
understand new learning approaches and support their children at home with
their schoolwork. At the same time, this would reduce parents' need for
traditional grades as a means of knowing how their children are progressing at
school.

there are three factor to enable creative learning and innovative teaching,
such as curricula, pedagogies, assessment and teacher training, ICT and digital

taught, and learnt in education sector to do, help, and support the practice of
