Creativity Workshops Are Fun

I really enjoyed the workshops this week and it was a good break from the normal routine of class. The workshops provided our group with the opportunity to have fun and also learn about the creative minds that exists with in our group. I think that my favorite creativity workshop was the workshop about making a product and presenting it as a commercial. The whole class seemed to take this workshop serious and also had a lot of fun with it. It was really funny to watch everyone do their impression of an infomercial and to see what crazy ideas the other groups had come up with. Our groups workshop went well and I think that the class enjoyed it. If I was to change one thing about our workshop I think that we should have given the groups some sort of prop so that they would have to expand their creativity even more to try and figure out what to do with the prop. It was interesting to me that each of the groups decided to use a narrator when they told their story of the worst school day ever. I thought that the class might come up with different ways of presenting, but I guess that people always try to take the path of least resistance. I learned a lot about creativity and I enjoyed the workshops. In the future I will try to constantly be thinking outside the box, because I think that being a creative person can make for a more enjoyable life. If you can constantly come up with creative things, then you won't have to get stuck in the mundanes of life.
