Some people think that creativity can’t be taught and practiced. I don’t think so. I think we’ll be more creative by changing our habits. To be creative, we must think freely. We must play with everything in our mind. No need to judge our ideas at first. Just need to improve our draft ideas by making effort. The essence of creativity lies in its freshness, its freedom, its newness. So, we need to think freely. To be creative, we may need to break existing rules if required. We need to apply every tool (that will enhance our creativity) in our daily life.
In my MT5003 (Creativity and Innovation) class, I have to learn many tools that will enhance my creativity. I also surfed Internet to find more tools. Here are some tools that will enhace our creativity.
- Six thinking hats
- Six action shoes
- Lateral thinking
- 7 step models
- 6 Wh and how and I(how,what,why,when,whrer,who,which, and If)
- Laddering and so on.
We need to choose the suitable that will suit with us. No need to use all these tools simultaneously. By using those tools, later, we’ll have a good habit of thinking. We’ll have a habit to think all things from various perspectives and will be creative. And for me, using those tools is also a fun. I’ll use those methods appropriately to enhance my creativity.
