Genius


What is something that you would think to be genius?

 

I picked the iPhone. It’s a phone where you can not only call nut you can do almost anything on. For an example you can watch movies you can video chat, check your email or business information. You can also buy things and connect with your friends. In reality there are billions of apps at your disposal they almost have an app for anything. The iPhone is genius because if you think about the idea of the iPhone it’s pretty out there. It’s just not something that was thought up in one day. Like just think how hard it was to connect the billions of networks plus have a store for the billions of apps and the other many things the iPhone can do like siri and maps. When you use a smart phone it makes your life easier and opens many new doors to what you can do with it. In my opinion a genius is a person who has an extraordinary idea that performs a action and creates something using that idea which lets others benefit.

is Eduation kiloing creativity?

i think creativity is being killed by education because teachers dont care about it. The teachers will give kids an assignment or a project and just get it done. There is no extra thought or effort put into it. Creativity is not something you can just do you have to practice at it and it isnt stressed enough in school nor do we as students have the oppurtuniites to be cretive. Sometimes being creative means taking a chance where we could potentially be wrong. But were are taught in school that being wrong is a bad thing so we are less likely to take that chance of being creative and beng wrong. In highschool there werent many ways i could have been creative but there were a few. One way i was able to be creative was with a project or like a powerpoint. I also took a physics class which was more hands on than bookwork so we were always building stuff and being creative to learn about the physics that applied but the more i look at school the less creative it is becoming.
