Idea

Not every theory was easily applicable to the society we live in today at first glance. It often took looking closer and the idea the theorist was presenting, looking at the issues going on around us, and figuring out how the two combine. I have never been good at critical thinking. Instead, I think in a very straightforward way, seeing things just as they are. In high school…

As the world changes and technologies develop, this creative process must as well, affecting all who utilize it. The use of these new technologies complement the creative process at every step, from…

There is no way around thought, it occurs every moment people are awake and determines their actions and who they are as individuals. As people are exposed to new and even old ideas, it is important to identify the logic in them. It is important to evaluate the validity of these ideas even if they are personal. Oftentimes people carry bias although they may be unaware of them, may lack information, or be distorted through misinformation ( Eider & Paul, 2007, p.62 ). This type of thinking can be…

incorrect terminology or everyday life used by nonscientists that has different meaning.

When we were first presented with this assignment, the task seemed daunting. There is so much to discuss with the ideas of gender, race, and class. However, once my group put our heads together we decided to talk about women in the media and not only how they respond to negative press but also how they are using their positions to promote feminism. In our modern world, we often use celebrities as models for how we should aspire to act. It seems only fair to give recognition to those actively…

He lets them flow into his mind anyway they can through visual or his senses. Once he gets his ideas, he jots them down to later implement them into his writing. My views differ between them all. I like the idea of Stafford’s “Fishing for ideas.” I also like Alvarez’s dedication to her writing, letting nothing deter her from her work. I also see where…

creative idea that might sound impossible to implement. We did the second round to find a better idea. Finally we agreed about bottle that was used as a dripping irrigation system. Based on research, dripping irrigation system has been being used since long time ago by Israeli farmers. It can save water and more effective to produce plants. We combined it with technology that could make it more efficient. For me, it was a very challenging phase. We needed to be brave to convey our idea. Even…

His ideal state is somewhat of a utopian society. The most noted idea in his ideal state is that if each person does their job and lives in harmony then you have a very powerful group of people. The harmony comes from the class system. The three types of classes are, the workingmen, the soldiers, and the…
