Takeaways from a creative thinking summer camp?

10/3/2012

Comments

 
In a few recent conversations I came across a few parents who were worried about what kind of tangible results they will take away from a 'creative thinking' workshop? What will a 5 day summer camp do, anyway? Lets try and shine some light on these concerns:

1. Takeaways from 'creative thinking' workshop - Creativity is an means to an end - to solve a problem, express yourself, get out of a rut, live life more resourcefully, happily - whatever you choose. During the summer camp we set the foundation towards adopting this way of life. 

2. Why 5 days? - It is a program that helps build creative thinking foundation and is a high stimulation program. The child needs to have free time of their own to start applying the tools learnt and looking at the world around them with a creative lens. We would love for the child to have that kind of free time to self develop and hence, 5 days...

We run long term program on Thinking Skills as an after school program, which includes Creative Thinking as a longer module and any child who has done our summer camp can come into our long term module to learn & apply creative thinking tools. We also do sessions with parents to inform and educate about the creative thinking process, tools/techniques imparted to the child and the progress made by the child. 

Like the very famous Albert Einstein once said,   Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts"
