To me, creativity is a great way to express the differences of learning, and visual features. Along with the expressions of the differences, there is the feeling of being different. Being different from the non-creative, boring life serves many purposes for the human race. Some examples of creativity are; taking songs with certain lyrics and change them up to mean something totally different, taking a normal picture and add/take away features or use different colors to create something totally different.
In education, the main focus is on getting students to pass their classes with an one answered key and only one true way to finish an assignment or project. With this process, students lose some to all of their creative strokes that make certain pieces of work stand out, by the end of their senior year of high school. In other words, creativity matters quite a bit. I watched a video that talked about how creativity influences the student to achieve more and be more focused in school. The artists usually can not think about what the teacher is saying, unless they are doodling. Though it may sound odd, it helps in the long end with brain juices.
The only way we can fix the lack of creativity is to encourage daily creative activities/lessons that will involve the student and keep them focused..... for the most part. Another way to fix this problem is to encourage more creative classes to be mandatory as well as the four regulars. Or some of the regulars can just be cut out. For instance, Science. It isn't really needed unless one would be majoring in a science.
