HOW TO BE CREATIVE IN SIX STEPS
Taiwanese Nobel laureate Lee Yuan Tseh suggests that students should learn to:
THINK independently and question "accepted" answers. Learning from teachers should be secondary to learning on their own.
ASK "good" questions that probe the frontiers of science and stump their teachers. They can find the answers to easy questions on their own.
VIEW a problem from all different angles, so that they can weight the pros and cons of every issue.
INVESTIGATE a topic thoroughly as this is the best wayt o learn about a subject. The research process can begin in secondary schools.
TACKLE "unsolvable problems" - questions or puzzles with no correct answers - so they will learn to "think deep".
Professor Lee also suggests that adults should:
RESPECT students, however young, as "complete persons with the right to express their opinions".
