Week 1: Creativity
Creativity:
I believe that everyone can be creative but there are some people who are naturally creative. These will be better than others in creativity if they work as hard as the others do.
In fact, we need creativity in every thing such as since, technology, media and communication as well. However, in my opinion, we need creativity more on media than others. Why I say that? It’s because media is the field and the environment of creativity more than others although other fields are important to adopt creativity.
What is Creativity?
It's a process to create something new. (Dr. Tareq Al-Suwaidan)
- Creation and invention.
- Producing something new and different.
– Any authentic and new behavior done without intent or prior planning.
– It’s the thinking that creates deviations from the mentioned path in search of diversity.
* The innovation must be addressed with the objectives and not purely a work of imagination.
Characteristics of Creativity:
• Creativity is a process and not a production.
• Creativity is oriented toward the goal to a personal or social benefit.
• Creativity leads to the production of something new and unfamiliar.
• The divergent thinking influences creativity.
• Creativity is a way of thinking and not synonymous with intelligence.
• The ability to create and innovate depends on the acquisition of available and adequate information.
• Creativity is a form of directed imagination that leads to achieve gains.
• There is no creativity without intelligence.
Attributes or Symptoms of Creativity:
• Thought fluency.
• Expression flexibility.
• Courage to face complex or ambiguous situations and response to it.
• A need on independence.
• Having high ambitious.
• Lack of discipline and the tendency to manipulate the ideas and opinions
• The tendency to insist and excessive self-confidence.
• The tendency to humor and fun.
• Curiosity and enjoy to face calculated risk.
