Is Creativity a Skill? - EdSurge

Is Creativity a Skill? - EdSurge | iPads, MakerEd and More  in Education | Scoop.it

Are you creative? How would you know, or convince your boss? According to a new LinkedIn analysis of member profiles, creativity tops the chart of soft skills that employers are looking for.

A skill is loosely defined as the ability to do something well. The word traces back to Old Norse for “power of discernment.” In the early 13th century, the word was also used to describe one’s “sense of ability, cleverness.” Skills can also be taught, improved, measured and defined—and be done with some consistency and reliability.

If you are in the education field, you’ve likely heard about #HourOfCode which took place last week.

The Hour of Code is a global movement by Computer Science Education Week and Code.org that reaches tens of millions of students in 180+ countries through a one-hour introduction to computer science and computer programming. The benefits of learning to code are valuable, as it helps these coders potentially become the creators of the next Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat.

All the attention and excitement about getting kids engaged in coding is great, but what happens when the hour is up?
