- Dr. Stuart Brown, founder of the National Institute for Play, in his book, Play, states, “It turns out that many of the developing countries are generating a flood of pretty smart people, too. Production design, software coding, computer processor manufacturer, and market analysis can be shipped to countries overseas. The advantage that countries like the United States retain is the ability to invent – to dream up solutions to problems that people may not yet even know they have. ” Evan Schwartz, in his book, Juice, highlighted that world renown inventors, such as Woody Norris, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates display flashes of genius. That genius is derived from their childlike proclivity to play with the things that interest them. This connection of invention and play has been documented in research and many books
- Bloom’s New Taxonomy indicates there are 6 levels of learning: Remembering: Retrieving, recognizing, and recalling relevant knowledge from long-term memory. Understanding: Constructing meaning from oral, written, and graphic messages through interpreting, exemplifying, classifying, summarizing, inferring, comparing, and explaining. Applying: Carrying out or using a procedure through executing, or implementing. Analyzing: Breaking material into constituent parts, determining how the parts relate to one another and to an overall structure or purpose through differentiating, organizing, and attributing. Evaluating: Making judgments based on criteria and standards through checking and critiquing. Creating: Putting elements together to form a coherent or functional whole; reorganizing elements into a new pattern or structure through generating, planning, inventing or producing.
- The Real Education Gap Chief Learning Officer Jan 2012, “The 2010 American Management Association (AMA) Critical Skills Survey showed that overwhelming majorities of executives had begun to emphasize a new set of skills that was neither intuitive for most people nor taught in school. These skills were dubbed “The Four C’s” and consist of: Critical thinking and problem solving: the ability to make decisions, solve problems and take actions as appropriate. Effective communication: the ability to synthesize and transmit ideas in written/oral forms. Collaboration and team building: the ability to work effectively with others from diverse groups with opposing points of view. Creativity and innovation: the ability to see what’s not there and make something happen.”
