课程概述

This course deals directly with your ability for creativity which is a critical skill in any field. It focuses on divergent thinking, the ability to develop multiple ideas and concepts to solve problems. Through a series of creativity building exercises, short lectures, and readings, learners develop both an understanding of creativity and increase their own ability. This course will help you understand the role of creativity and innovation in your own work and in other disciplines. It will challenge you to move outside of your existing comfort zone and to recognize the value of that exploration. This course will help you understand the importance of diverse ideas, and to convey that understanding to others. The principal learning activity in the course is a series of "differents" where you are challenged to identify and change your own cultural, habitual, and normal patterns of behavior. Beginning with a prompt, e.g. "eat something different", you will begin to recognize your own = limits and to overcome them. In addition, you are encouraged to understand that creativity is based on societal norms, and that by it's nature, it will differ from and be discouraged by society. In this course, the persistence of the creative person is developed through practice. At the same time, these exercises are constrained by concerns of safety, legality, and economics, which are addressed in their creative process....

This course instilled a sense of confidence as well. The tools,techniques and methods used to convey abstract ideas pertaining to creativity were simple and effective.

Excellent premise, good suggestions. Some technical issues with repeated videos & lack of experience w/talking to a camera instead of a person, but nothing too distracting.

Overall, I enjoyed this course. I found the readings to be very insightful along with the supplementary materials (there was a stellar Ted Talk) but some of the videos fell a bit short for me along with some of the activities. I enjoyed the thought and meaning behind the DSD challenges but some of the instructions and encouragement to complete these activities/challenges in public felt odd to me and read more like a sociology 101 course. In the same vein, I think the rolling admittance of an online course like this does not lend itself well to group feedback/discussion time. I didn’t see many people interacting in the discussion sections or providing meaningful feedback so that part felt a bit futile. However, again the ideas behind these DSD challenges were great and I appreciated trying to think of new things to do and ways to be more creative in my own life, changing my habits, etc. I picked up some good tips and tricks in terms of mind mapping and attribute listing which I will definitely use to help me problem solve in the future. So overall, I enjoyed the course and learned new things but it ultimately felt very surface level (which could be very fair considering this was a beginner course) but I wished there had been more personal activities that focused on building and growing my own creativity.

The first week of the course introduces you to the wonders of being a creative person. The Do Something Different are practical applications of creativity which is fine however most of the lessons taught in the four modules are very limited. In example, the lessons were for generating solutions as it meanwhile what the DSD what most likely about being "random and as a contrarian." New and updated researchers on creativity would have been generously appreciated, and such as mentor and student interaction in the discussion forums for any inquiry that they may have.

The tone of the speaker had also a huge impact on trying to be creative. Rehearsed lines and a more friendly atmosphere would have improved the atmosphere. The DSD's are quite challenging but not applicable as of this time. There could have been other ways of generating ideas instead of the DSD's where students are required to upload pictures of them that might be used against them later by attackers to harm their reputation. Further review and consideration about this must be checked upon.

If you have a lot of free time, you are free to check this course out for yourself. You might as well learn something fairly new.
