In the present paper, a strong call is issued to reconsider the teaching methods used by teachers in general and chemistry teachers in particular. The study makes an attempt to derive the widely-applicable and practical teaching procedures so as to logically indicate the probabilistic directions in which chemistry teaching has to proceed. For this purpose, specific reference is made to the notions of creativity and problem-solving and the fact that true learning is deeply rooted in these psychological concepts. In the end, creativity is redefined and its critical role, which has often been ignored, is reincorporated in the teaching profession. Specific guidelines are presented to introduce this psychological concept in chemistry classes. . Lippincott, a former editor, stated the Journal's aims well: "to provide chemistry teachers with information, ideas and materials for improving and updating their background and their understanding of the science and for helping them in their teaching and in their effectiveness in developing the talents of students.The question of choice from among and arriving at the most effective method for teaching chemistry has always been a topic of interest in academia with no apparent settlement. Controversy surrounding the most effective method can be traced to two features. First, researchers have too often taken the meanings of such terms as "success" and "learning" for granted thus failing to prepare the groundwork required for the discussion. Secondly, genuine chemistry abilities have neither been formally identified nor catered for. As a result, there has seldom been a trustworthy yardstick by means of which to assess the success of a student's attempt at learning chemistry and his/her potential for future research projects. Bloom identifies the following six categories in the order of decreasing complexity in learning Asian Journal of Chemistry; Vol. 25, No. 1 (2013)
