The following questions, which are aligned with the Views on Creativity exercise from Lesson 3, should be used as the basis of your exploration:
Do you think there are many or few creative people in today’s society?
How would you describe creative people? What are they like?
How many things that people do might be called creative?
How would you describe a creative idea, solution, or product?
What are the chances of success for a creative idea?
What is the source of creativity: individuals, groups, and/or organizations?
Do you believe you are creative? When and how?
Part 2: Your View of Creativity – Before and After
Answer the list of questions yourself – first, according to your understanding of creativity when you entered this course, and second, as you understand creativity now through the lens of Adaption-Innovation theory (i.e., what is Kirton’s view of creativity). In your response, be sure to address both similarities and differences between your view of creativity before the course and Kirton’s.
Part 3: Closing Synthesis
To close the assignment, synthesize what you have learned about creativity from this process of exploration. Then comment briefly on why it is important to study creativity and problem solving within a technical degree program.
