Creationism is the belief, or strongly held opinion, that the universe, the Earth and all forms of life including man were created in their present form by a creator god, in practice usually the abrahamic God.
Evolution is change in the genetic nature of a population of organisms from one generation to the next, as a result of a combination of three main processes: variation, reproduction, and natural selection. In this context it refers to the evolution of entirely new species over time.
To compare creationism to evolution is to compare opinion that is unsupported by evidence, to evidence-based scientific theory.

How does evolution involve creationism?
Evolution does NOT involve creationism.Evolution is a testable and therefore provable explanation as to how the diversity of life on earth has happened.Creationism is a religious viewpoint and therefore a mater of faith.AnswerI agree with the above. Evolution does NOT involve Creationism. Evolution is a branch of biological science and thus rejects "supernatural" claims such as those of Creationism, does not need to consider them. Creationism, often hanging on Genesis, the first book of the Bible, predates scientific inquiry and the scientific method and so is thus rejected by science and thus evolutionary science. In the public spotlight, the so-called Evolution-Creation "controversy" and all the on-stage arguments and debates might make it seem as though Evolution and Creationism (and Intelligent Design) have a lot to do with one another, but I doubt Creationism gets much mention at all in scientific laboratories and scientific conferences (it can't because it hasn't got anything to say about the real world.)

Should evolution and creationism be taught side by side in school?
Most certainly not side-by-side. That would imply that they are equivalent notions. Evolution, however, is a scientific theory, and creationism is religious myth. Evolution belongs in biology classes, creationism in something like comparative religion courses.
