I'm on a Tour

, , , , ,

I decided to hit the road and go on a tour around high-schools in western Slovenia to promote UMMI summer camps and in doing so speak about issues with creativity and giftedness. My main points are:

- giftedness is a property of mind which has to be carefully nurtured, otherwise skills will diminish to average at best,
- creativity is not a property of mind, it is a way of thinking. It is seeing each thing afresh and approaching problems with playfulness, courage and bravery,
- creative and gifted people are often misunderstood, hence they feel alone,
- but they are not!



I am recording every lecture and I shall publish the best version ASAP. After each lecture I try to encourage debate about this issues to get some feedback. It is a great experience and there is still 5 places to go! wink

As far as I can judge, your main points are well documented and proven by psychology and neuro sciences. So you have strong arguments =) Wish you a lot of fun on your tour!

Bi, bi... sam ni za benz... Bi rabil pol enga managerja, da mi pomaga tolk šol kontaktirat (sploh tam, kjer me ne poznajo še) in izterjat denar za stroške...
