The first blog-ING for the Cre@tive Studies

Yeah yeah ^^ Finally, I have opened a blog for the Creative Studies.
Today, It may counted as the first time I have meet this class.


First, I would like to introduce myself.
I'm Tee Zi Xuan. I'm now officially 18 years old.
I'm from JB.


When the lecturer said that, this subject will not have any note posted at MMLS, we have to take our own notes, I feel a bit afraid, because I was afraid that I might not understand what is about the talk as my English is not that good. Luckily, I can catch up what is the lecturer talking about and didn't fall as sleep in the class. I found that it is an interesting class. haha XD


The objective of this subject :
~ To develop student's ability to identify an issue or topic and from that carry out appropriate research, analysis and idea synthesis that will result in a unique, personal statement.


As many lecturer says,"we must think out of the box".


Do not think by the heart but the brain.


There are many differences between Critical Thinking and Creative Thinking.
~very often, a certitude is nothing but a lack of imagination.

Critical Thinking

Critical thinking involves logical thinking and reasoning including skills such as comparison, classification, sequencing, cause/effect, patterning, webbing, analogies, deductive and inductive reasoning, forecasting, planning, hyphothesizing, and critiquing.


Creative Thinking

Creative thinking involves creating something new or original. It involves the skills of flexibility, originality, fluency, elaboration, brainstorming, modification, imagery, associative thinking, attribute listing, metaphorical thinking, forced relationships. The aim of creative thinking is to stimulate curiosity and promote divergence.


So, what is "Creative Studies" ?

2. characterized by originality of thought; having or showing imagination a creative mind
