Imagination Vs Knowledge Research Paper

Improved Essays
As Albert Einstein once said “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” He believed that Imagination would be able to take you farther in life than your pure knowledge could. As he said “...Knowledge is limited…” which means that you may not always know the right solution, but you maybe be able to imagine more freely. This is because when you use your knowledge you might not be thinking of all the endless possibilities. As for when you are using your imagination you are more likely to have a more creative perspective. To better explain what he means you have to realize that all people do is think they need to know everything, like the answers or solutions but what is more important …show more content…
Not always being right will feel good, but being passionate about what you are doing. What you do with your knowledge is up to you and how you use it will show people what you really like. People with creative minds truly have the keys to the world. If you can dream it, you can be it. Your mind is like your super power, it gives you the opportunity to believe something great can happen. Peoples mind is the gateway to endless possibilities and resources. Most likely everyone in this class will go on to college after high school and some won't, but those people who dont might be better off in life because they can imagine what they want to do with their life as for the people who will go to college might feel that all they can do is know the facts and do what they went to college for. As time goes by people show how they take things in and if they try to go about it with the facts or imagine what possibilities are out there in the world. I believe that imagination will take you further than your knowledge because for example when you were a kid and you didn't know anything, you used your imagination and made an answer or made it be what you

Understanding implies a forward motion, thus the possibility of change.” (Wilson, 263) Without understanding something, people would never learn anything. Without learning anything, people would become prideful believing that we know everything, when in reality, nobody knows everything.…

    The articles “Imagination in Practice”, by P. Anne Scott, and “Speaking My Mind: The Problem with the Power of the Imagination”, by Linda Payne Young, both create an argument about where imagination stands in the real world with the effective use of rhetorical strategies such as ethos, pathos, and logos. Emphasizing focus into the workforce, Linda Young argues that the problem with imagination is that the excessive use of it in schools and society brings a negative impact along with it, compared to Scott’s belief that imagination is a necessity in the workforce, specifically the medical field. Imagination, at times, may get out of hand but is ultimately an attribute that society can’t go without. To an extent, it is a critical aspect in certain…

    Every person has different strategies when it comes to learning and working either alone or collaboratively within a group. I consider myself a doer.

Because of how motivated I am in a group to complete the task at hand, I am quick to give my ideas and visions for the final product which makes me the usual group leader.…
