I really like this article because it fuels my desire to be creative in the classroom. If we want our students to be successful after school we need to show them how to think creatively! Sometimes the business world's focus on critical thinking does a disservice to the value of creative thinking. These 9 steps are key to success in new product development.

It's not always about technology, we need a balance. Good idea to jump start students writing a personal narrative. Memoir Writing Prompt 1. There are many ways to get a fresh perspective. They all help you look at details in a new way. Assume you are going to write about your home (this could be, instead, a favorite childhood doll, your son or daughter, the day you got married, your first job — just pick something you would like to write about today). Imagine that you climb up a 50 foot tree that has suddenly appeared at the edge of your property. Write what the house (or whatever you have chosen) looks like from this vantage point.

Students are no longer giving educators an apple. Instead, public educators are now giving student Apples worth more than $500.
According to USA Today, Zeeland Public Schools in western Michigan has decided to give an iPad to every one of its 1,800 high school students as part of a new program. Educators’ longer-term plan is for every student in grades 3–12 to have an iPad in their hands.
