Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and
processes using technology.
With the rapid progress of modern
civilization, creativity and innovation in education and economy are becoming
the major driving forces behind all the things that we enjoy. For example, take
a look at most of, not all, Apple products. Although there are some anti-Apple
users out there somewhere, most of us appreciate its products. Creativity and
innovation are two of major values of human resources in the 21st century knowledge-based
society.
Through technology, their importance is
emphasized in today's knowledge economy which is based on the production and
distribution of knowledge and information. The ability of an organization to grow
is depended on its capability to generate new ideas and to utilize them
effectively for the long-term benefit of the organization. Again, take a look
at what Apple is doing.
I agree with you that creativity and innovation have become more important in our society than they have ever been before. Promoting this with our students is a difficult task.
