We Should Cherish Our Children 's Freedom

Creative development is important to a child’s learning because it helps them to use their mind and imagination and express their own ideas, and through playing with their friends it also helps them to understand that all family’s and cultures can be different. It helps them to make connections in their thinking and the way in which they problem solve, by doing things over and over again they reinforce their thinking and learning, they develop self-esteem, confidence, imagination & learning to work together in groups. It puts down the foundations for more

There is no basis in the belief that children are “naturally curious” and that given a freedom-based education they will be productive (Koonce, 2015,

1.3 Critically analyze how creativity and creative learning can support young children’s emotional, social, intellectual, communication and physical development

There are some considerations in terms of children’s intellectual development that teachers should keep in mind. First, education is exploration. This is where teachers allow children to interact with the environment by providing rich experiences and environment. Second, children do not think like adults. This is where children have

Creativity is equally as important as literacy, and we need to start treating it that way in schools around the world. According to Ken Robinson’s claim in his, “How Schools Kill Creativity” speech, he believes this to be exceptionally true. All children are creative and talented, however, we have grown up in a world where we believe that it’s wrong to exemplify our creativity. Robinson uses both, pathos, and ethos to help make his claim. He arises emotion in you; he causes you to really think, to trust him, and to question ultimately, how things are being done in the educational system. We as a world have become so consumed with the idea of putting each child into a category of what they’re going to be successful in, regardless of their creativity or passions. You’re either good at math, science, or English; everything is based on your academic ability. What happens then to the people who aren’t academically smart, but are more creative? They are then made to feel that what they have to offer the world simply isn’t good enough, but the truth is, it is good enough. Over time however, we are taught out of our creativity. Schools around the world kill creativity by instilling a sense of fear in the child that what they are doing, and how they feel is wrong, this ultimately discourages them, and they fall victim to the industrialized educational system that we have present day. Robinson believes now more than

In Creativity on the Brink the Arthur, Arlane Starko, explains of his trip to china. While there he encountered many questions from fellow educators that all asked the same question, how to teach creativity. The areas that he visited were known for having very high test scores, but the educators knew that high test scores won’t be enough to help in the future. The Chinese are masters of test taking yet their creativity level is almost nonexistent. China has become the example that Yong Zhao points out, “every choice we make about

Albert Einstein once said, “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” This quote describes the responsibilities and standards of teaching children. I believe that teachers should be held to high standards for being the foundation of a student’s education and well-being. For my future students, my responsibilities as a future educator include supplementing the growth of a variety of students’ knowledge and creativity, abiding as a role model for students and colleagues, and understanding the issues in the foundations of education.

On this basis, we have to be careful about the children’s education. Lots of students find literature boring and waste of time nowadays. So, we have to make them realize that literature does not only consist of stories written about imaginary people, but it represents ideas that are revolutionary and fascinating for their future life; however, that will not happen without taking responsibility. Therefore, parents and teachers have to undertake this task because that a generation takes the shape of the society it belongs. For instance, they will not feel strange if their parents do not discuss different ideas about a situation. That’s why; parents and teachers should keep children away from the idiot box, and should pay attention to their education. Not only from the perspective of literature but also relating what they learn from books with real life. Being aware of that technology is being used to establish conformity in society, that is, simply accepting the tenets of the majority, we have to try to change the rules of the

“The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things” (Jean Piaget).

A student has the ability to learn without a teacher. However, the Law of the Teaching Process creates the background for a teacher to guide a student on the path to more knowledge. A teacher should establish a safe environment that encourages thinking to help students learn “the unknown by the way of the known” (84). Acquiring their knowledge and increasing their mental power correlates to the aims of a teacher as they guide students. While a teacher is to be passionate in laying out knowledge, the really work of an education, acquiring knowledge, is the work of the student. A student learns by discovery and information stores as the student interprets the new information.

Education always plays an important role in enabling people to enter society knowledgably and with good skills. People keep learning from cradle to grave in order to horn their skills of thinking creatively as one of the key factors for success. They are conventionally trained by their school professors even from preschool period. However, the most reasonable time to learn is the high school stage when students' brains are significantly developing ('Thinking skills' 2003). This essay, therefore, will argue the idea that schools should be active in teaching students creative thinking skills because of the good educational background itself and the skills acquired will be

Children are no longer encouraged to be creative in the test prep environment. Instead, they are being taught to perform well on standardized tests and are labeled as unintelligent if they don’t. Young children are born with creativity and we see that when they are playing and pretending. According to Sir Ken Robinson, in Slon’s (2013) article, “by the time they get to be adults, most kids have lost that capacity” to be creative. The fundamentals of creation and experimentation are not part of the standardized testing mechanism.

According to Campbell and Jane (2012), “The generative and evaluative modes associated with creativity help children to understand their own creative thinking and decision-making, facilitating their learning.” (p. 2). I agree with this observation because I do believe that allowing children to expand in their creative thinking will allow them to make decisions on their own. Technology even helps them more because they are given software’s that allows them to show their creative thinking and decision making. The authors emphasize how children feel more motivated during technological activities and discuss how the language of the children improves with the use of technology. For example, they are able to download applications that provide them with speaking and listening skills. Furthermore, they could also use applications that allows them to learn other languages, which expand their knowledge. Their research revealed how some factors such as beliefs, attitudes, expectations, emotions, and motivation in the learning process, can help the learning experiences connect students to be more creative and analytic. In this study, the authors demonstrated that children are more engaged when they are taught by means of technology (Campbell, 2012).

The “new education” that she invented will make learning fun, spontaneous and challenging. She diminished the traditional method of teaching by starting her children with writing. She felt the traditional method of teaching was very teacher-oriented and it lacks the role of children in education. The teacher dominates the class and gives instructions to the whole class. The children’s role is to sit, listen and absorb the information from teacher’s traditional academic instruction. Teachers sets the Curriculum materials themselves at a rapid pace plus the materials are not catered for individual needs. They are treated in a same manner; therefore teachers are not being able to address each child’s individual academic strengths and needs.

The children construct their knowledge – knowledge is not transferred but is personally constructed the learning meditated. The knowledge is not transferring from one mind to another mind, but it is personally constructed in child mind. Teachers were taught something in the class; child would analyze and remembers about it, critically, creatively, and systematically. The child would likes to improve the skill help of the teacher, parents, adults, and peers. The society is help to improve the child knowledge, when child is walking through the street it interactions with the others, and get information’s. The cognitive development is not direct result of activity but it is indirect. Cognitive development in child it is very important. Cognitive development child learns from society as well as interaction between each other, introduce the new tools among them and in group, with the support of group child will increase his knowledge. The cognitive development is important role in child life from knowledge child gets information about either bad or
