Study Notes
Creativity & Intuition
- Creativity involves the use of imagination to create something unique and new.
- It can be viewed as turning the ordinary into extraordinary through invention.
- Tension exists between intellect and intuition, conscious and unconscious, order and disorder, conventional and unconventional.
- Creativity often requires a radical new way of looking at things, restructuring, or a non-obvious solution.
Creativity: Artistic vs Scientific
- Artistic creativity is rooted in individual expression, often divorced from social reality and focuses on expressive outputs.
- Scientific creativity relies on disciplined, logical thinking.
Creativity: Insight
- Insight is a solution to a problem based on past experience, often a radical new way of looking at things.
- Past knowledge or familiarity can sometimes make problem solving more difficult.
Problem Solving Methods
- Trial and Error: Experimenting with various solutions until a successful one is found.
- Means-End Analysis: Breaking down a problem into smaller steps and finding a solution for each step.
- Analogies: Using comparisons between different concepts or objects to find a solution.
- Schema: Using pre-existing knowledge structures to inform problem-solving.
- Divergent Thinking: Generating multiple ideas or solutions to a problem.
