Motivational Message Towards Creative Thinking: The Human Side from Steve Jobs
Here is a motivational message from Steve Jobs, given at a college commencement. It provides a very interesting perspective on how we see life, and how that can impact our accomplishments. It offers a personal side of learning, and being creative, which is, from my perspective, at the crux of any type of literacy, including visual literacy. The Creative Thinking Skills for Life and Education , Creative Thinking in Education, by Craig Rusbult,
This Web Site is an excellent start in learning more about using creative thinking in our classrooms.
Available resources, such as this YouTube video, can also help spark our colleagues and students in thinking about their own lives. The very fact that this video and many others, (that are appropriate for teaching and learning), are available at anytime through YouTube to share truly supports what we want to teach our students. What an opportunity in learning! Job's message is well worth viewing.
