The creativity workshop was really fun today. I was impressed by the structures that we were able to build out of cans. We learned how to be creative in a new way. Everyone helped out to build the structure and we enjoyed being creative and helping others at the same time.
Creativity and engineers...
One of my professors mentioned that engineers are less creative when they leave college then when they enter based on a study. I feel like this is true in my case. The math, physics, and engineering classes that I have taken have taught me about theory and structure, but very few assignments require creativity. I became an engineer because I like to design and build things and figure out how they work. Many of the classes that I have had suppress creativity because they do not encourage it or require it to succeed. The activity today and the activity in class on monday were really fun for me to use my creative side. I'm looking forward to more creativity workshops next week!
