The section that i choose to investigate is "NETS-T Module: Facilitate and Inspire Students Learning and Creativity" number 1. In this section I watched a video of creativity in schools by Ken Robinson. The reason I decided to explore this part of NETS is because I want to learn more about creativity and how it help students. Another reason is because I am not a creative person and want to be able to be creative when I have my classroom.
In the video I learn why many times students in high school are no longer creative, and how it is related to their early teachers. an important thing that i learn in the video that i really like is when he mentions " If your are not prepared to be wrong, you will never come up with anything original." True is presented in this statement because everything that has being created needed creativity and was set to be wrong or right.
The way the video presents that school kills creativity is understandable. It is easy to understand because it mentions how schools are created to only enforce in children academic subjects like math and English. when a student wants to be moving or drawing schools say they have a disease like autism, when in reality they want to be creative in different ways.
The video help open my eyes to what schools can do to creativity in children.
The assignment helped me see what were my skills in technology and it provides resources to improve in the ones you do not score well. I cut it and post it to my blog, with a reflection from one of the resources I read. NETS-T: IV
