Thanks for all the comments.
I run into this word in some article references. Here are some book references:

* From Creativity to Responsible Createlligence as Future Competence
"Klaus .K.Urban
* Responsible Createlligence.
In M. I. Stein (Ed.). (2001), Creativity?s Global Correspondents ?
2001 (pp. 102-104). Delray Beach, FL: Winslow.
* Yamin, T, S. (2002). Comments on ?From Creativity to Responsible
Createlligence?, World Gifted,
21(2), 8-9.
* Urban, K. K. (2001). Responsible createlligence. In M. I. Stein
(Ed.), Creativity's Global Correspondents - 2001 (pp. 102-104). Delray
Beach, FL: Winslow.

Here's one PDF on neurophysiological model of Creative Intelligence
which has one book reference with Createlligence written on it:

Neither the Oxford English Dictionary nor Merriam-Webster's Collegiate
Dictionary recognize these non-words.  Where did you come accross
them?

Obviously, this is a portmanteau, mixing "creativity" and
"intelligence." It's used primarily in discussion of the "modern
gifted student." Time was that to get into a gifted or advanced
program of classes, you had to show intelligence as pertains to
academics. However, in many communities, this has been modified so
that exceptionally creative kids can get into the gifted programs as
well, even though the classwork done in those classes still caters to
the academically gifted. "Createlligence," in this sense, refers to
the mixture of those two types of students within the gifted class, or
to an exceptionally gifted child who is not only academically good but
is also very creative.

This coined word reminds me of Disney's "Imagineering."

My guess would be:

Using Internet resources to lucidly and methodically investigate, and
systematically put into daily practice--beliefs and activities that
have been scientifally proven to increase one's mental capacities.

Here's an example of what I mean:

The problem in answering this question is that there is no "dictionary
definition" of this word. It appears to be a recently-coined word with
very limited usage, and such words seldom appear in dictionaries.
