[未完待续][学习笔记] 创造力课程纽约州立大学

写给自己：摆脱little-C，实现pro-C。

Interest helps to survival, endeavor responsible for success, openness takes the starts.

1. 每天的创造力来源于哪里？

1>permission to fail. 正视失败，失败乃成功之母。

2>take the risk, even the calculated ones. 承担责任，即使是巨大的损失。

3>Open minded;....Embrace ambiguity; ...Avoiding immediate judgement. 开放思维，拥抱歧义，避免武断。

4>....playfulness;会玩

2. 创造力，越用越多！

2. 创造力定义：

创造力就是创造对一定群体接受、有用、满意的产品。这个定义跟撰写小论文不一样吗？不过也是，论文的核心就是Contribution，就是创新。

不行？看第二个定义：

这个更像撰写论文了。创造力是感知信息中的问题、形成思想和假设、检验假设、修改假设、交流结果的过程。

3.创造力的以来条件：经验（知识与技能）、天赋（构造新方法的能力）、耐力（耐过那创造力前枯燥无味的干涸）！----->最后一个简直就是我的心声，耐过开花之前的枯燥。写小论文很累，yes，all until the publishment.

5. deferring judgement 避免过早下结论 ---> I have too much instant judgements!

创新思维通常被恐惧和拒绝所阻挡。心有所惧，心有所疑，不可成事。

思考：为什么富人更容易成功？

6. 抓住每个小的idea，realize it，broaden it.

Why not, I take the leap, try it, and see what happens.

7. 认知能力控制我们的思考，涉及两个方面的思考，divergent thinking[发散思维]: defoucs来获取广泛的解决方案；convergent thinking[收敛思维]：评估、改进一个可行的方案。

然而仅有这两个能力还不够支持创新，attitude也是重要的支持，it's the ability to form suppositions[假设]，相信现在为实现的一项内容，具有可行性。

相关内容：认知能力(cognitive abilities,cognitive ability)；认知能力是指人脑加工、储存和提取信息的能力，即人们对事物的构成、性能与他物的关系、发展的动力、发展方向以及基本规律的把握能力。它是人们成功的完成活动最重要的心理条件。知觉、记忆、注意、思维和想象的能力都被认为是认知能力。

8. 创新模型创新的定义中指明创新应当是 noble or new and task appropriate.

mini-C阶段：[Creative 4 u]当某人进行了某种深度的学习的时候，that's an act of creativity [for him/her]. It's the kind of self-awareness that this is new and meaningful to me.

little-C阶段：[Creative 4 Some of Other People]当某些人认为内容有创新的时候，进入到little-C阶段。

pro-C阶段：[Keep Developing the Product] you have that decision of whether to keep working at it, maybe working with people who are professionals and experts. And thatover time, over practice your work will reach that level of being an expert, of being professional. And to a degree this is the most that we can really realistically aspire for that's under our control. It is under our control how much we practice, how much we try.

JMSLYA:从little-C到pro-C的阶段就是小论文撰写的阶段，通过两方面因素，自身努力和与专家合作，使得自己成为专家。这个阶段完全受自己努力的控制，是我认为的创新的最美妙的阶段。

big-C阶段：[Let the history talk] 当你通过自身努力完成创新之后，就让世人与历史去评判创新，奇迹还是沉默，都不再受自身控制。

Cultivating Creativity：giving them many opportunities to explore creativity and the Little-c level. And then helping them understand if there'sone particular interest or area of aspiration that they feel really inclined to pursue. How much it takes, what kind of work it takes to go from your interest and your expression of it at this level to actually become an accomplished professional creator. And so, that's where bringing in accomplished creators can serve as important models and that can really help cultivate that, that creative trajectory.

Domain Specific: yourlevel of C will vary by domain, by endeavor [努力], in that you may have somebody who's at the Pro-C level of teaching or of psychology research or of art. And when they try something else, hm, they may be mini-c, they may be Little-c. It is rare to have somebody at that polymath level who is Pro-C it in many different areas. It happens, of course, but it's rare. But,you'll have a lot of people who might have this whole spread of their Pro-C in this and their Little-c in these ten things, and their mini-c in the, these 40 things.

9. 一个研究恐龙的教授说到：I started on page one, I'd had no idea how it was going to end. I come up with one question and then another question and then we answer that one.

10. 某教授总结56个创造力定义[这些定义各有侧重]，构成了现有的创造力4Ps： the creative person, the creative process, the creative product, and the creative press, otherwise known as the creative environment.

Person篇

1. It is a result of just being persistent and dogged and saying let's do this again. ... I think that you know, kind of implicating [暗示] myself as part of the problem, and try to [do something...do something...] ... the wisdom of navigating uncertain circumstances. ... it takes a lot of pressure off of me[这带给我很多很多的压力].

Creativity is amazing.
