Creativity is an important part of our lives. The ability to express creativity lends itself to many opportunities, relationships and networks. It is a way of bringing people together in a positive and productive way. The world would be a boring place without it. I feel that creativity belongs in our educational institutions, beginning in early childhood. It should also be a part of our day-to-day existence. Creativity is a unique learning process as it is unique unto each individual; therefore the outcomes are diverse and endless.
Creativity matters because it is productive and our world is constantly changing; allowing for such production.
Educational systems should be aware of the benefits of creativity. Nurturing the learning process through the use of creativity is beneficial because individuals may flourish through its use.
- Encourage individuals to always tap into their creative side.
- Maintain a positive environment with encouragement and nurture creative thought.
- Build open, supportive communities, encouraging diversity from different cultures, groups and lifestyles.
- Learn from mistakes and encourage growth from them.
- Focus time on what is important and encourage productivity towards the goal.
- Welcome creativity from everyone in your group.
- Be confident in standing out in a crowd rather than going along with the crowd.
