  3. ROUTE9 Watch the video labelled Shaun. How can their plan be described as being Creative? CREATIVITY DEBATE: What is meant by being CREATIVE?

  4. ROUTE9 Answers: An anvil. 2. An overpass pillar on a highway. 3. Champagne glass. 4. Piano stool. 5. Tower with revolving restaurant. 6. Minute-timer. 7. Propeller. 8. Chess-game rook or castle. 9. Fruit holder. 10. Bird bath. 11. Chalice. 12. Rubber grommet. 13. Keyhole slot in door. 14. An extrusion die. 15. Two Pontiac automobiles about to crash head on. 16. A screw jack. 17. An arrowhead going into an object. 18. Two girls sitting back-to-back and holding parcels on their heads. a. What do you see when you look at this image. A Vase or Two Human Faces? b. Write down as many extra things that you can see… One of the most useful of all thinking modes in creative problem solving is visual thinking. It is especially effective in solving problems where shapes, forms, or patterns are concerned. To improve your powers of visualization, concentrate on the accompanying illustration. CREATIVITY ACTIVITY ONE

  5. ROUTE9 Defining a problem too narrowly can inhibit and delay finding a solution. The creative problem solver tries to state the requirements as broadly as possible at the beginning. (WHAT OTHER ROUTE 9 SKILL DO YOU NEED TO USE?) If, after a reasonable time, no solution presents itself, they try to restate it in such a way that a new avenue of approach becomes available.Less successful problem solvers, on the other hand, persist doggedly in the same direction, even when the difficulty does not yield to their efforts. They are blocked from considering new directions by stubborn commitment to the old. Look at the first sketch and imagine that you are the person shown standing in the room. You have been given the task of tying together the ends of the two strings suspended from the ceiling. The strings are located so that you cannot reach one string with your outstretched hand while holding the second in your other hand. The room is totally bare, and you have only the resources you would normally have in your pocket or handbag. How do you solve this problem? CREATIVITY CHALLENGE 2

  6. ROUTE9 Defining a problem too narrowly can inhibit and delay finding a solution. The creative problem solver tries to state the requirements as broadly as possible at the beginning. (WHAT OTHER ROUTE 9 SKILL DO YOU NEED TO USE?) If, after a reasonable time, no solution presents itself, they try to restate it in such a way that a new avenue of approach becomes available.Less successful problem solvers, on the other hand, persist doggedly in the same direction, even when the difficulty does not yield to their efforts. They are blocked from considering new directions by stubborn commitment to the old. Most people will see the difficulty as a shortness of reach. That is, they state the problem to themselves as: "How can I get to the second string?" The consequence of this perspective is that all effort goes into vain efforts to find a means of making one of the strings longer. But the "givens" of this problem make such a solution impossible.If, however, you define the problem as "How can the string and I get together?", another sort of solution may occur to you. The solution requires that you see the difficulty in terms of getting the second string to come to you. If you tie a small object-say, a key or a ring-to the end of one string and set it swinging like a pendulum, you can grab it while still holding the end of the second string in the other hand. CREATIVITY CHALLENGE 2

  7. ROUTE9 Most of us impose too many imaginary boundaries, restrictions, and constraints upon our problems, and hence fail to solve them. CREATIVITY TASK 3

  8. ROUTE9 CREATIVITY SOLUTION

  9. ROUTE9 IN TEAMS OF 4… 1) Think of a problem in the developing world that needs solving.  Why does it need solving? What problems will the world/person suffer from if this problem is not solved? 2) Think of an invention to cure it/solve the problem. Use your imagination! 3) Draw a picture of the invention and label it. You must be able to explain in detail how it works. Maybe you could price the parts. How much would you sell it for if you wanted to make a profit? CREATIVITY DRAGONS’ DEN Watch This Video CLIP
