Enhancing personal creativity
People who are students or young practitioners get knowledge are eroded and creativity increasingly rare if they learn subjects in every areas which are ruled by grim determinism without freedom and adventures. Therefore, the only way to increase the creativity to young people or the next generation is transmit the excitement to all of them who will become artists, scientists, thinkers, doers, and more. [1] This is because studying knowledge at school without experiences and practicing will make study become abstract, hard to understand and hard to access. Therefore, it will always be knowledge in the book. More outside activities which require children to think, speak, have own opinion, find out the solutions,...will make the knowledge close to their life. That will make them easy to be open and focus on what they are doing as well as it is easier to study.
Making day-to-day experiences more vivid, more rewarding and more enjoyable. When we live creatively that links us with the process of evolution. The study of creative lives can be implemented by anybody at any age, gender, social condition. There are more methods to parents and adults to provide optimal conditions for creation development of children that can change conditions of the next generations. [2]
To go close to the creative life, the first thing is the cultivation of curiosity and interest. Children have the advantage over adults because their curiosity invests and highlights with interest anything. Because there is no end to the unknown so that is why children’s delight also is endless. Curiosity is generic and diffuse for all children and adults who want to venture to explore more. From the simplest thing that we should try to pay attention everyday to slowly make it more complex. Because increasing complexity of things will keep us enjoying it.[3]
If we know how to make time for reflection and relaxation, we will know to increase that habit.[4] Because people considered that habit is something that they are used to it without paying attention to what they are doing. Therefore, building up the habits with control attention that will help us to be open, focused, receptive and directed.[5]
To apply the creative energy to our daily life, we have to find out what the problem is and never stop finding them.[6] Because those problems will contribute to what we experienced and what we got. A problem should be looked at from many viewpoints instead of a particular point in order to explain it properly about that and more important is finding out its meaning.[7]
We also try to create the different in creation by producing many ideas, thinking in new directions, getting different ideas, and trying to produce unlikely ideas. [8]
Lecture and tutorial
The environment we are in today are what we act, think, learn and response to them.
Design is a process. Design is a system or the way of thinking. Design is action and the way of doing thing. Process responding to social problem which people concern about.
In the design process which was showed through the diagram, is exactly what design does and it is a process. It requires us follow that process to create a design work. Moreover, it is very rare to start from the beginning to the end without any fault. It means this process has to be repeat in some stages to be test and refine them again and again to get the best result.
