Girls and boys attitudes towards the education of creativity in physical education lessons are different. Research target – find out teachers and students attitudes towards the education of creativity in physical education lessons. Research objectives: 1. Analyze scientific literature and discuss the concept of creativity, factors influencing and inhibit creativity and creativity in education physical education classes. 2. To determine student"s approach to creativity education during physical education lessons. 3. Compare girls and boys attitude about creativity education. 7 4. Compare the IX – X and XI – XII classes" students approach to creativity education during physical education lessons. 5. Set the physical education teacher's approach to creativity education during physical education lessons. 6. Comparison of physical culture teachers' and students' attitudes towards the education of creativity in physical education lessons. Conclusions: 1. Consensus in the scientific literature on the concept of creativity is not, but in my opinion, this is a person's ability to solve tasks and issues an original, flexible and efficient.

Teachers more favorably assesses the student's ability to adapt to one another and create a task for something new, but in psychical education classes" creativity educating tasks are assigned rarely. Creativity is educated only partially because of the development of physical education teacher is a partially creative. 3. The analysis of questionnaire data, disaggregated by sex, it should be noted that even a significant disagreed when p<0.05, so all this data confirm a second hypothesis that boys and girls differ in opinion on the creativity education and its" development through psychical education lessons. 4. Taking into account the classes have not received significant difference that creativity is innate or the result of education. In all other aspects of the students' approach to creativity education in accordance with the classes differed significantly (p < 0, 05). 5. 79,5% of teachers think that creativity is innate and partly educated. Most of the teachers described themselves as a likeness of new impressions, although in physical education classes creativity developing tasks are rare and the educates creativity only in part.

In teachers" point of view, for physical education lesson to be more creative, students lack of self-expression. 6. 56,4% of teachers believe (p< 0,05), that creativity leads to an environment in which student grow, where family, friends, teachers are and the creativity development is engaging in an activity that can be suppressed by the authoritarian relationships, strict discipline, and the negative 8 reaction of the teacher. Pupils in terms of criticism. (47.6 percent) creativity is determined by the environment in which the student grow, where family, friends, teachers are and creativity education condition is freedom of expression, which is not suppressed by authoritarian relationships, strict discipline, and the negative reaction of the teacher and criticism. Teachers and students think different what could make the psychical education lessons more creative. So while students and teachers aims in physical education lessons are quite similar, but their views on this issue are different, and this confirms the first raised hypothesis.

The paper analyzes the sociological theory. Western type public modernity theories are assumed as a process, for which a developing society is approaching the developed societies reaching a certain level of economic growth, a certain level of public participation and the democratic stage of development, giving the individual more physical, social and economic mobility. Structural functionalism (Parson, 1997; Merton, 1997 et al.). With the approach to this theory, it can be said that inequality in education stems from the ascription to social class, strata, ethnic groups, etc., also due to individual's achievements, which are usually associated with the innate talents and efforts. The analysis of an individual's social functioning and social stratification is based on the approach to Capital theory (Bourdieu, 1986). Thus, the participation of education players in education system, also the accessibility of education to an individual depends on the volume and structure of the available capital. Participation in individual's reproduction process and education system, based on the approach to this theory, is defined by individual's habits (habitus), and harmony with individual's social status. The theory of social conflict (Dahrendorf, 1996; Coser, 1969) argues that conflicts can be identified among all social systems and the educational institute. In terms of social conflict society is the actual and potential arena of conflicts. Network activity theory (Burt, 1982; Granovetter, 1973; Castells, 2005) aims to analyze and describe reciprocal link models in the social system. The followers of this theory keep to the opinion that social structures need to be investigated first, as the players' behavior is constrained by social structures. Very often it is the case at education institution that students from the disadvantaged families, with negative evaluations or various disorders, are often isolated from the classroom and school community.

Entrepreneurship, as one of today's most relevant competences, is widely discussed in the public space. Conditional novelty and popularity of the phenomenon is intriguing and engaging. Discussions regarding the content of the concept of entrepreneurship are carried out regularly at different levels, despite the fact that the definition of the said phenomenon is provided in general documents of the European Union. In the last decade, according to various laws and regulations, as well as scientific publications, entrepreneurship is considered as "general competence or competence relevant to all citizens of the rapidly developing countries and related to creativity, ingenuity, new ideas and their implementation; therefore, entrepreneurial education becomes particularly important in terms of implementation of social, technological and economic changes of various countries". The Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 on key competences for lifelong learning17 sets out eight key competences important to the EU citizens (communication in the mother tongue; communication in foreign languages; mathematical competence and basic competences in science and technology; digital competence; learning to learn; social and civic competences; sense of initiative and entrepreneurship; cultural awareness and expression), and entrepreneurship is one of them. Entrepreneurial education is particularly topical in the implementation of the Lisbon Strategy. [.]

The Bologna declaration stresses the importance of education and educational co-operation in the development and strengthening of stable, peaceful and democratic societies. Additionally the declaration highlights the need to promote European co-operation in quality assurance with a view to develop comparable criteria and methodologies. The cooperative activity of universities created preconditions for students' mobility under the Leonardo da Vinci and Socrates programmes. Hence, a comparison of efficiency of engineering education studies at partner institutions has become a topical issue. The paper presents the problems related to engineering education quality at different universities and suggests a system of indicators that are applicable for education quality estimation. The main idea is to compare the distinguished aspects of the education process and to evaluate quality of teaching. The efficiency of different subjects (social and engineering) is estimated by applying sets of criteria, to be implemented by incorporating a proposed system of criteria into questionnaires for students at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VGTU), who participate in student mobility programmes. Processing of the received responses let the author achieve the ultimate aim, i.e. to trace differences in the quality of teaching. Policy implications in the field of engineering education quality management are seen as main outcome of presented research.

The origin of the term švietimas may be found at the turn of the 18th century in the Age of Enlightenment. Most of society lived in hardship, poverty, and oppression with no political rights, lacking even a rudimentary education. In other words, society was in darkness and needed illumination. It is no wonder the era was called the Age of Enlightenment (the Lithuanian term švietimasis based on the word for light). It should be noted that the term enlightenment was used only figuratively to describe the age, while basic pedagogical terms in most of Europe emanated from the Latin word educare. Possibly the most salient event of the Age of Enlightenment in Lithuania was the establishment of the Commission for National Education in 1773. As in other European countries during the Age of Enlightenment, the term education was adopted. But in 1795 most of Lithuania was occupied by Tsarist Russia and Russian laws came into force. In 1802 Ministerstvo narodnogo prosveščenija (Enlightenment Ministry) was established in Russia using the term enlightenment instead of education, which was then copied in Lithuanian. This was a time of intense Russification, and the term švietimas became fixed, pushing out the word edukacija. We might agree with B. Bitinas (2011, 5), that the Tsarist occupation cut short the efforts to solidify the educare concept that was prevalent in Western Europe. More than a century later Lithuania declared its independence and the issue of basic Lithuanian terminology became very relevant. In 1935 S. Šalkauskis first used the word ugdymas as the equivalent of education/erziehung to describe the object of the science of pedagogy. Later, when Lithuania was again occupied and isolated from Western Europe by the iron curtain of the USSR, the use of the term ugdymas as the equivalent of education/erziehung was used more often. . This term became fixed in the 1981 textbook "Pedagogika" by B. Bitinas, V. Rajeckas, J. Vaitkevičius, and Z. Bajoriūnas. At the same time, as in all of the USSR, švietimas (prosveshchenije in Russian) was used as an administrative term. The situation changed in 1990 when Lithuania regained its independence. Although the term ugdymas was considered the equivalent of education/erziehung, this stance faltered in 2009 when TESE (The thesaurus for education systems in Europe) officially fixed the term švietimas as the translation of the English term education. From that time the term švietimas is used for education/erziehung when translating documents of the European Union. It should also be noted that in the last few decades the term edukacija is returning to the Lithuanian scholarly lexicon. This term is the most lucid equivalent of education/erziehung, which was formally anchored in Lithuania in 1773, but forgotten due to Russification. With it the concept of educare returns to Lithuania. Maybe the time has come to return to edukacija as the Lithuanian equivalent of education/erziehung and the object of educational science? The Ministry might be called Edukacijos ir Mokslo ministerija, and the term švietimas could retain its figurative meaning.
