Article on Creativity:
The article on creativity discusses a study in which the people who thought creatively had a “high-creative” network in their brain and that correlates to an increased amount of original thoughts. A creative person's brain is talked about being wired differently and leaves you with the question if this is something that is fixed or can it be malleable. I believe they can be shaped and mastered as you can learn to do anything as long as you practice it. The more you practice the better you become even if it takes longer for some people rather than others. Even the article starts off by saying that everyone can be creative, and we all have the ability to be creative because we possess the ability to.

Discussion:
In class we discussed how school limits creativity in students and the rigid nature of the classroom prevents them from thinking creatively. Schools should be able to teach students how to think without telling them what to think and that way they can learn their sense of identity in the world without being inhibited. You’re not given a chance to think for yourself until you are in college, and for the first 18 years of your life everything was told to you. I believe that many students experience difficulty with thinking creatively and that translates into their jobs and work life as they struggle to complete tasks without specific instructions because that’s how they were taught.
