One of the primary objectives of the modern education system is to foster students’ creativity. Creativity is the ability to generate new ideas, solutions, and concepts. Project-based learning (PBL) provides opportunities for students to engage in collaboration, take initiative in solving problems, and develop innovative ideas. Taking the above into account, it is crucial to understand student creativity, which is not limited to the arts but is essential across all areas of human activity. The newly revised Law “On Education” of the Republic of Uzbekistan outlines the key principles and legal regulations that shape the strategic development of the country’s education system. According to this law, education is defined as a systematic process aimed at equipping learners with deep theoretical knowledge, professional competencies, and practical skills, while also developing theirgeneral and vocational abilities andcapacities [1]. Enhancing students' creativity is now considered one of the most important features of the modern educational process. In this regard, teaching methods play a central role. Utilizing a variety of pedagogical approaches and techniques can significantly improve students' critical thinking and their ability to develop innovative solutions. This article reviews a range of academic sources and studies to explore the effects of project-based methods on student creativity. The studies referenced in this article highlight how project-based learning can enhance students’ creativity. For instance, researchers have investigated how modern technologies can be implemented by teachers to foster students’ creative thinking abilities. Several significant studieshave been carried out in thisarea. A study conducted by renowned scholars Smith and Johnson (2018) demonstrated that the use of active learning methods significantly improved students’ creativity and problem-solving skills. They emphasized the importance of group discussions and peer interaction during the problem-solving process.Similarly, research by Kahn and Roberts (2020) showed that compared to traditional teaching methods, project-based learning was more effective in promoting creative thinking among students. Their experiments illustrated how students’ http://www.internationaljournal.co.in/index.php/jasass 559 Volume 15Issue 06, June 2025 Impact factor: 2019: 4.679 2020: 5.015 2021: 5.436, 2022: 5.242, 2023: 6.995, 2024 7.75 interpersonal interactions and experiences contributed to the development of creativity over time. Oneof thekey theoretical foundations onthistopicis offered inCreativity in Context byTeresa M.Amabile(1996), which discusses recent developments in the social psychology ofcreativity. The book explores how social factors may support or inhibit creative cognitive mechanisms. Amabile emphasizes two fundamental questions essential to understanding creativity: What differentiates creative work from ordinary work? And what are the most favorable conditions for creativity—what personal traits and characteristics, or what kind of social environment?Amabile focuses particularly on the second question, aiming to establish the social psychological foundation ofcreativity by examining how social factors influence creative activity and how creative processes differ from routine performance. Both questions are addressed throughout the book, and its insights were incorporated into the analysis presented in thisarticle [2] In the process of examining how various teaching methods affect students’ creativity, the followingapproaches were employed: Project-based learning – This is an instructional method that allows students to explore and express their thoughts by solving real-world
