Creativity Classes in Hs

Creativity, often generally summed up as the use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work. However right that may be, there is more to it than the standard definition. I would also add on that people who possess creativity have the ability to think of clever solutions to problems that would otherwise go unsolved―an essential for 21st century jobs. Yet, the quotient of this imperative skill has been scientifically recorded as declining as our needs for it continue to grow. So, what can we do to help solve this issue? Well, we could start with implementing classes made specifically for culturing that imaginativeness in children as they grow.

I consider myself to be a decently innovative character, and I believe that where I am today, in terms of creativity, are reliant upon what my parents encouraged me to do as a child. Though they may not have taken up an instrument and stuck with it when they grew up, they wanted me to at least try it. It turns out, I took to music like a duck to water. Soon I was making up silly little tunes on the flute and piano while in elementary, and I believe that the exposure to a creative art like that pushed me to be able to think and see more than one option for doing something. If I didn’t like the way a song I picked sounded, then I wouldn’t just keep playing it as is. I would change a few notes so that it would flow better and fit my tastes, and I apply that open mindedness gained from my experience to all subjects that I take up.

Personally, I think that everyone is born with at least an adequate amount of imagination, because that’s simply what I’ve observed in children over the years. However, as kids grow up, they are taught through the education system that ‘conforming is safe’ and somehow lose a part of themselves along the way. We grow up learning that we need to find the one correct answer, and are pretty much conditioned to be afraid of diverging our thoughts from the norm in order to stay within the boundaries of stability and safety. There’s nothing wrong with thinking that way, but it will eventually lead to the downfall of genius in humanity if we are all disciplined to share similar thought processes. That’s where courses created specifically for creativity come in.

The capabilities of individuals who develop their competency in such a versatile way of thinking could be so beneficial to both the individuals and those around them. Being able to find options for decisions in life makes the difference between becoming stumped and failing to pass the obstacle because you can’t see a way out, or overcoming it. Those are going to be the type of people who will influence the world that we live in, and wouldn’t you rather have people who are flexible in their decisions?

Freedom to flourish in a particular passion should be mandatory in schools, as the experimentation with creative arts
