Creativity and Innovative Ways to
Solve Problems
#1: Describe the most creative
people you know. What are their personality characteristics, living styles, and
creating methods?
#2: Benjamin Franklin said that if
everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking. Can you give examples of
politicians, scientists, public figures or students who are thinking alike? Can
you give examples of those who think individually? Which group do you think you
fall under? What are ways to be more of an individual thinker?
#3: Was Aristotle correct when he
said that “there is nothing new under the sun”? What do you think
have been some of the most creative new ideas and discoveries since the time of
Aristotle, over 2,300 years ago? How was an “old” invention turned
into something “new”, or better, to create that discovery or idea?
