Defining Novelty , Creativity , Innovation and Invention

Novelty



Novelty is the quality of being new. For example like the digital video memo magnet. The sticky papers has been taken to the next level. It is a fridge magnet that you can use to record a 30-second video. It was designed to be versatile and as simple as possible even who don't know ABC they also knows how to leave a message.



Creativity




Creativity is the ability to produce something new through imaginative skill, whether a new solution to a problem, a new method or device, or a new artistic object. It's remind me to Maisie Maud Broadhead who found a solution to those ugly cables while most of us organize excess lengths of cable by hiding them from view. I think it is a clever and unusual way to deal with cable.


Innovation and Invention


Innovation is a new way of doing something or "new stuff that is made useful" and invention is a new composition, device, or process. The toothpaste tube squeezer is innovation and invention item. It is an attractive, easy to use tool for squeezing toothpaste and reduces waste by getting all of the contents out.

Defining Creativity




Creativity is something that allows people to show what they are capable of doing and how people express themselves in any way.It is truly sad that creativity is not given any encouragement from many in society today because we won't get a decent job being an artist.

I still remember when im in form 4, my teacher said "don't do arts, you're never going to be an artist and making money".Yes,that's exactly what my teacher said to me because they knew im choosing an art class. Sir Robinson is right. Creativity in the world is being crushed by our educational system. Teachers always teach students to think only one side of the brain.

For me,we should let the students learn whatever they want and learns exactly what they need to know for their career.So, go out in the world and be what you want to be, and learn what you want to learn. Instead of being something someone else wants you to be.
