 Hello learners. In this discussion, we will discuss about the remaining part of unit number 7 that is from your creativity unit. So in the first unit, first part of the unit, we have discussed about the specific concept, its characteristics and factors of creativity. In this discussion, we will discuss about the relationship between creativity and intelligence, creativity and education. As well as we will discuss about the role of school in the promotion of creativity as well as the role of the home in the promotion of creativity. Then we will summarize the relation and end the unit. So let's start. So in the first part, we have discussed that creativity is a potential which help in generating new ideas and novelty or in innovative forms. But there is a common thinking or common saying that intelligence and creativity are interrelated. But what actually it is? We have to discuss. As you are student of educational psychology, you know that intelligence and creativity both are psychological attributes. Though creativity cannot be separated from intelligence, it is not necessary that only the person with high IQ can really create something new. So most importantly here. It is not necessary that a person with high IQ can create something new. That means what? Intelligence is not the only condition for creativity. A person with average intelligence. Can also bring new ideas, new object and new discovery. Intelligence and creativity are not the essential condition of each other. However, a certain level of intelligence is necessary for successful creative expression. Though we have discussed that intelligence is not an essential condition for creativity. But a certain level of intelligence is essential because a person with low IQ cannot make a new thing. A certain level of intelligence is essential. But you should remember that this is not the only condition. And we can say that there are relationships between creativity and intelligence, but they are not essential conditions for each other. A quotation I have quoted here by Keanu Ankirvi. He said that an individual can be extremely bright but uncreative. Or a highly creative but not necessarily intellectually gifted. That means what? An individual can be highly bright or he may have high IQ. But he might not be creative. But a creative person, but a highly creative but not necessarily intellectually gifted. The same thing they are focusing on that intelligence and creativity are not essentially related. Then, relationship between creativity and education. Yes, creativity is totally an individualistic potential. But how education comes here we have to discuss. Though creativity is a natural and domain, appropriate opportunities, proper training and education is necessary for creative expression. Yes, creativity is a natural and domain. A child can attain it by birth. It may be his natural and domain. But if he is not identified properly by his teacher, properly by his parents, he cannot develop his creative potentiality. For creative potentiality, for his expression, it needs a proper training, proper environment. And the environment can be given by the education. Because creativity is considered a significant component of an individual's personality. So education also encompasses the development of creative abilities when it indicates all-round development. Because we all know that education emphasizes on all-round development of the child. It is the basic primary objective of education. And creativity is a part component of an individual's total personality development. And as such, education put emphasis on it for its proper development. Education therefore should provide the children appropriate conditions and opportunities for proper growth and development of their creative abilities. So when we think about or when we discuss about education in terms of promoting creativity, who will do it? The teachers. The teachers are the main central point of education. So they must think, they must pay proper attention for the promotional creativity in the child. It is the first and foremost duty of the teacher to identify the creative person and provide them the platform where they can nourish it. So how they will do it? They will, they can do it or they will do it by providing opportunity for artistic expression. By organizing, by attending or by creating artistic, you know, competition or any kind of activities. They can provide the artistic expression for the particular creative children or children. Then healthy and atmosphere are for creative expression. The teacher must encourage because courage or encouragement is the important condition for creativity. The teacher should provide healthy atmosphere. They should always encourage. They should not push them back. Rather they should encourage them. For expressing their creativity. Then encouragement for inviting good qualities like self-confidence, self-reliance. By encouraging them to do any kind of activity which generates self-confidence, self-reliance, self-pilling. They can help the child for promoting their creative qualities. Then opportunities for the creative work in school curriculum. Yes, school curriculum can be used as one of the important medium for promoting creativity. First kind of creative activities can be included in a school curriculum. Artistic, literature, any, any creative activity can be included or advised to do in as a part of the school curriculum. Then application of different special techniques and methods like brainstorming, gaming. Then teaching models like Barnard's concept attainment model. I think you all have come across this technique in your first semester for paper. Then fostering creativity among the children. Applying different kind of scientific and activity based method, the teacher can promote creativity. As well as they can apply different models. There are different models of teaching and these models can be applied by the teacher for promoting creativity among the student. Then helping people to apprehend and think over the often eventualities of their own actions. So they can be asked or they can be encouraged to evaluate your own action, what they have done. It is good or bad. If it is good, it's okay. They are advised to encourage to make it better. If it is not good, then they should be advised or encouraged to make it good. By applying different kind of innovative ideas, novel ideas. This can also encourage or promote creativity in the child. Then encouraging children to draw inferences of their own accomplishment. Yes, what they have accomplished. By drawing out the inference also they can be encouraged to promote creativity among the children. So these are not the list. The teacher can list out lots of activities, lots of means through which they can promote creativity among the child. The teacher's role is very important because they are guiding the child. They are molding the child. So they should pay special attention in finding out the creativity among a creative child among the class. Then we have the home. Other than the school, this is the home where the child spends most of his time. Because the home is the first school for the child. So the parent, especially the father, mother and other guardian must identify the creativeness of the child. So that they can nourish it, provide proper attention, provide proper resources and environment to develop it. So how they can do it? By monitoring and directing the use of resources like TV, computer, mobile, internet, etc. Nowadays we have seen that the addiction to the mobile TV is increasing day by day. So the parents can monitor it and direct its use. Because technology has given us lots of good things. But besides its good thing, it has some negative impact also. So leaving it, we have to think on its creative and structural use. So the parents can make a very important role in this part. Then encouraging creative expression by their children, by use of or by different play, different, you know, at interest hobbies in the family. By sharing hobbies, interest like flying, doing puzzles, sport, painting, they can also be encouraged. Taking care of the emotional environment is very important. Because we have come to know that for creative expression, the creative person or the particular person needs free space and time. So the parents should take proper care of this fact that they should not provide imposition. They should not be imposed to do something. They should be given free time and space so that they can think, imagine from their own point of view and create something new. Then permitting the children to ask questions without any hesitation. Yes, at a particular stage the child becomes very curious and they are going on asking questions without any interruption. So the parents should take proper care of it because if they are given proper answer, the creativity will be developed. Otherwise it will be suppressed. So the parents should take proper care of in all these things, not at a particular stage but even after part. Because it is a natural enjoyment. Then another important thing is allowing children to make mistakes and take chances. Yes, we learn from mistakes. We learn from challenges. We learn from problems. So we should let our child to change face challenges. We should let our child to make mistakes. For mistakes only they will learn. They will learn. Yes, we should not school them for doing mistakes. Instead we should let them do mistakes. Through a mistake they will learn but we should take special care so that they do not make repeated mistakes. Because creativity is something like that which is in a state of development or generation out of the challenges and problem. Therefore we can say that the home and the school are the most important factors or the condition or environment who can provide the base out of base to the child for development of their creativity. So what we have discussed in this part? We have discussed about the relationship of creativity with intelligence. And what we have gained that intelligence and creativity are not the essential condition of each other. However, a certain level of intelligence is necessary for successful creative expression. When education should provide the children the good condition and opportunities for full growth and development of the particular creative abilities. And when you talk about education it comes to the school and the teacher. The school as well as the home can influence a lot in the development of creativity. By taking lots of care, by sharing their hobbies and doing lots of things that we have discussed in the discussion. So in this way we have come to the end of this unit and I hope that you are able to clarify your doubt regarding the creativity. Its aspect, factors, state and the role of teachers and school and the home in developing creativity in the particular children or among the children. Thank you.
