About Creativity:What did they say?



'To make children more 'creative' we should set them a tedious and pointless task. They'll have to think imaginatively to avoid dying of boredom!' Ted Wragg

'Thinking is a skill, not intelligence in action.' Edward de Bono

'A kid is a guy I never wrote down to. He's interested in what I say if I make it interesting.' Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seuss)

'It is a pity that the notion of creativity in education has to be fought for... Thinking up fresh ideas is what teachers are paid for.' Ted Wragg

'There's nothing magical about creativity. Einstein was an overnight success after 20 years of failure.' Unknown

'Nobody has a clue what the world will look like in five year's time. And yet we're meant to be educating children for it.' Sir Ken Robinson

'All children are born artists. The problem is getting them to stay that way.' Pablo Picasso

'We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them..' Albert Einstein

'Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.' Josef Albers

'I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.' Edith Ann

'It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.' Edward de Bono
