Good communication skills are a basic necessity for the development of each and every discipline, whether it is administration, education, business or anything else. When it comes to creativity; exchange/sharing of thoughts, ideas, and knowledge definitely contributes to it.

In this project, three channels of communication have been used to maintain a bidirectional and interactive discourse between an author (in curriculum), teachers and students, which include video conferencing through skype, interaction through social medium-facebook and face to face interactions. Creativity has its roots in constructive coordination of thought processes mainly convergent thought process and divergent thought process which has been utilized in this experiment to produce works of literature in the form of two books "Smile Thy Sorrows" and "Preserve Thy peace".
