This article is about how technology can boost student creativity. It asks for teachers to transform their teaching method. Examples they give are puzzles or a quest of their own. They also discuss the flipped class method. All of these types of technology lessons lead to student creativity.

Schools are not doing enough for students to use their imagination trhough creativity.  Maybe is becuase as grownups our imagination is curbed by rules, limits and theories.  Children are very creative and they have great imagination.  Teaching methods should be transformed using the technology available such as students taking pictures, making videos, and expressing their thoughts creatively with others.  
Jose Manuel Garza's curator insight, May 22, 2023 4:55 PM

The advantage of using technology devices in the classroom is that it opens the doors to a vast universe of possibilities in which the student may take part and use to complete assignments and homework. The large quantity of sources available to students online, including learning applications, serve students as a springboard to their imagination and their creative tendencies to help them understand more about the world. In my classroom I incorporate the use of applications and the internet by assigning students assignments that require them to search the web and apply their creative ideas to make one-of-a-kind projects and assignments.
