Reflection on Lesson 2

First, it is kind good, but the slide are full with words that make me sleepy, ( partially it is also my fault because I sleep late that night). But still, I manage to understand what the lecturer want to tells the class about this topic.

What is Creativity? (Lesson 1)

What is creativity? Most of people think that creativity only exist in someone special or genius and if you are creative, you are an artist or a painter. Actually it is not true, all human are creative and if it not for the community maybe it is for themselves. It is not only just in art, but it is also in all field like business, economics, architecture, industrial design, graphic design, advertising, mathematics, music, science and engineering, teaching and many more.

Creativity is a thinking style that create a new idea that never exist, improving the already existing idea and maybe create some thing different. So if creating something in art is creative, what do you call a person who create a cellphone? An Inventor? No, because phone already invented by someone else. It must be creative because he create a wireless and portable phone which he improving it from the wire phone.

Almost all people in this world are not master in all creativity. For example a art people that paint something unique are not master in creativity to build a building. That's why almost all people have their different special ability or creativity. Even 3 years old kids also have their own creativity until his parent no idea what his child are doing.

So, creativity is not only limited to a certain person. But it is in all of us, it depend on us to realize it or not.

Reflection on Lesson 2
