What creativity means to me.

1. Creativity to me means you can draw a picture that doesn't look like a kid drew it.
2. Creativity is important, because it gets you thinking. I think in kids usually like when they play that they are grown ups, the one pretending to be the dad goes to work and the child pretending to be the mom stays home and watches the baby. I think this is creative.
3. I'm not creative. I wish I was creative. I try to be creative.
4. Creativity can mesh with the Harwood Activity Model for Inquiry, because when you're deciding on your experiment and question you can be creative in your thoughts.
5. In present classmates and future students we should come up with some non-traditional ways of teaching certain classes. And we should let students think for themselves, without getting hurt, of course. We should try teaching for example a science class the traditonal way AND non-traditional way, and watch the results.
6. I know one guy that's 39 and creative. He has knick knacks all over. He has 3 cats and fur all over. He has a flowered hippo print that he framed.

well i was going to copy and paste, but i couldn't.  I like AMI it's cool to analyze. I never took a science class, so I've never seen it before. I can identify dependent and independent variables and develop experiments that require controlling variables. I can create analogies between science process and every day  experiences  and find connections across the disciples. I can try and deal with the frustrations of creating/executing a research project  and  develop a positive attitude and be able to clearly communicate with others. I can interpret and manipulate data in a variety of formats, such as technical drawings, graphs, tables, charts, and maps to analyze results and derive and defend conclusions using evidence. I can generate testable questions and design experimental procedures that are reliable, reproducible and executable. I can collect accurate data on the natural world including observations using my senses and numeric data of length, mass and time. I understand the definition of science/theory and I can discuss and provide examples of social, historical, and cultural influences on science and vice versa. I can define law, hypothesis, and experiment and how they relate to each other. ?I know that science involves developing and understanding the world through posing and answering questions. I know that scientific ideas are subject to change yet durable and that science can't provide answers to all questions.
