Creativity is a natural skill often exhibited by children at home and in schools, especially during play. Children are often seen playing with drawings and moulding of objects. Hence, if care is taken to encourage and develop children’s creativity, it may enhance a sustainable development in Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programme. The aim of this study therefore was to determine the level of engagement of Nigerian children in creativity practice.  The study was carried out using 400 (232 boys and 168 girls) Junior Secondary School students of age eleven to thirteen as sample. Specifically, the study sought to find out whether or not the children do undertake creative activities at home and the domains in which their creative activities are based upon.  A Child-Creative Inventory Form (CCIF) was used as an instrument for data collection. Data collected were analyzed using both percentages and Chi-Square. The findings of the study revealed that Nigerian children love to engage in creative activities mostly in the domain of technical and vocational skills such as: building technology, woodwork, mechanical technology, and electrical electronics. The study revealed that 87.07% of the boys were engaged in creativity while that of girls was 73.81.5%; 7.76.% of the boys were not engaged in creativity while that of girls was 20.8%. 24.57% of the boys were not sure of their involvement while that of girls was 5.36%. In all, the study found a significant difference in the level of engagement of boys and girls in creativity with P< 0.05 level of Significance. It was therefore recommended that children who are creative in the domains of technology could be assisted to develop their career in these domains as this would be a means to sustain the TVET programme in the nation.

Everybody is talking about the newest episodes on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other channels. While the cultural phenomen of a “series” is nothing new, it has never been so popular as today. The “lockdown” era brought more streaming, more time at home and more online teaching. Starting with the idea that our students (and many of our teachers) are now part of the “Netflix generation”, we have been integrating serial elements in education and training. This contribution describes the first experiments of using the elements of a series in teaching. Regardless of whether online and offline teaching, teachers and trainers can use some classical methods of series, such as recaps and cliffhangers, teasers and mysteries to make the courses not only more interesting but also more consistent. Encouraged by the positive results of our experiments, we will be taking the series a step further in the upcoming semester and  include elements of an interactive series in our teaching. Together with the students, we will be developing a storyboard outlining the series' episodes throughout the semester.

Fish farming in buckets or more popularly known as BUDIKDAMBER cultivates fish and vegetables in one bucket. In addition to increasing students' understanding of ecosystems, BUDIKDAMBER can also be a solution for teachers and students who have limited land for plant and fish cultivation. This activity aims to provide education and training to teachers and students regarding fish farming techniques currently used to solve small-scale fish farming. The implementation of this activity includes the preparation stage, the material delivery stage, and the experimental stage. Through soft skills training, it can increase knowledge and insight for teachers and students at SMPN 4 Rantau Panjang regarding the BUDIKDAMBER technique so that it is to motivate and attract teachers and students to try at home and pass on the knowledge gained to the surrounding community
