How do we use creativity?
Many people think of creativity as inner emotion, ideas, and feeling and expressing them in something physical. But how do we express ourselves? Many use their creativity in art or music. I believe that most people think of art or music when they think of creativity, however couldn't we say that creativity can also be expressed in other ways such as science, business, or literature? So why is creativity thought of so often as simply art? Why refer to someone's creativity in reference to a scientific theory or an interpretation of literature or even a certain view on history?

Can creativity be taught?
Can creativity be taught? This is one of the questions that was asked to my class yesterday. The answer to this is kind of complicated. I don't think that it can necessarily be taught but it can be developed and molded so that a person's creativity can reach its full potential. Through practice their creativity can be developed so that the person can learn how to better express themselves in the area in which they are trying to excel.
