Creativity is Not Always About Solving Problems
Posted on May 6, 2013 by Kira Kenley
Creative Explorer, Howard Gardner
Taking alone time to reflect, experiment and frame answers is the key to creative intelligence, he contends.
Gardner is urging Indian and Chinese teachers, and those with education systems that prize correct answers above reflective experimentation, to emulate American peers who “spend a lot of time on probing the wrong answers given by their students.
“Kids often have a very good rationale behind the wrong answers they give,” he said, and often will come up with right ones unaided if left to do so. “It’s important that we create an atmosphere in which it is OK to ask new questions and make mistakes.”
A person can be creatively gifted in many different ways, Howard suggests, citing the examples of Einstein, TS Eliot, Martha Graham, Sigmund Freud and Mahatma Gandhi, among others.
The only attribute that all creative people share, he concluded, is a large capacity to be alone.

Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article
seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let
you know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon.
Thanks

All the best,
I almost never comment, however after browsing through a few of the responses on Creativity is Not Always About Solving Problems | The Go Creative!
And, if you are writing at other online social sites, I would like to keep up with you. Could you make a list of every one of all your public sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
Blog. I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright. Could it be only me or do a few of these comments appear like they are written by brain dead folks?

A quoi sert de gagner de l’argent sur les options binaires si on ne
peut pas retirer nos gains ? C’est pour ne plus devoir poser cette
question, que nous avons décidé de vous proposer les meilleurs
brokers d’options binaires régulés en Europe mais aussi en France par les organismes
de régulation tel que l’AMF-l’ACP-Banque de France.
Ayant nous même subi l’arnaque de certains brokers mal attentionnés nous avons décidé d’agir et de créer ce
comparatif.
