igniting creativity, unlocking potential
 Creativity happens when a creative person uses a creative process within a creative environment to produce a creative outcome.
WHAT IS CREATIVITY

A Creative Person is someone who can:

•    Engage their imagination and their curiosity

•    Generate and consider new alternatives

•    Apply strategies to solve problems that are ambiguous, complex and unprecedented.

 

 

A Creative Process is a combination of thinking tools and approaches that when used deliberately can deliver creative solutions to open-ended challenges.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Creative Environment refers to both a physical and psychological setting that allows risk-taking and freedom to make mistakes; one that is dynamic, playful, and supports alternative learning styles; a place that provides challenges, and encourages curiosity and debate.

 

 

A Creative Outcome is any tangible or intangible product that is both novel and appropriate. A product is appropriate when it is useful and solves a problem within a prescribed set of criteria.
