Innovation

Innovation always follows creativity...the more ideas you uncover, the more chances to find one that works. 

When I first became a technology teacher, I did not realize how much creativity was required for this occupation.  However, I've learned that creativity is fundamental to my job.  Now, more than ever, since I'm creating practice work and curriculum, I must generate countless ideas and possibilities.  A work session for me could take a few hours, or a few minutes, depending on the quality of the concepts I can generate. 

Creativity is like loving, going to sleep, or behaving unaffectedly...the worst results often occur when someone tries their hardest. 

I am praying today that God blesses me with his creativity, so that I can find not just good ways to teach my students in future weeks, but the best ways to open my students to the world of technology. 

Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 

For anyone looking to develop their creativity, I recommend reading Julia Cameron's book, 'The Artist's Way.'
