ceativity

creativity 

HI welcome to my blog, this term for pbl we have been working on creativity  as  well we have been finishing our end task. For Pbl I think that over all our group has worked well on creativity but we can still work and improve on some parts . We have been given 2 task and they were to come up with 100 uses for a paper clip, my top  answers was a mini screw driver  to take lego apart  and to use a paper clip to take the SD card out of your phone. the next task was to turn shapes in to a real life object some ideas were a  ball and cookie. 

We also got asked some questions about how we show creativity. The first question was what kind of thinker am I? I think that I can come up with some good ideas. 
The next question was what creative thinking skills do I have and which can I work on and why? I think that I am a good planer and thinker too. I think that I can still work my creative skills . The last question was what aspects of creativity do I find the hardest? the hard thing about coming up with a creative idea is to make the idea happen that is what I'v found working in my pbl group.  

Are you a good creative thinker?
