Scavenger Hunt




















I thought yesterdays scavenger hunt was something normal that it was just suppose to make us bond together with the people around us. But after knowing what the scavenger was really about, i knew that i was in the correct class. I had no creativity at all.  Our group just went on and did the scavenger hunt the hard way by actually going to the places to take pictures, even though we didn't pay much attention and didn't realize that the teacher didn't ask us how to get the pictures. The teacher wanted us to be creative about it there were many things that could of made this scavenger hunt much easier but we didn't get to think about it, because me and my two other group members lacked creativity. If i had the chance to hunt again i would of taken this scavenger hunt into a different direction and just would of gone to library and went on GOOGLE and got pictures of all of these things besides actually going out in search for them. Our groups strategy at first was to think of things that were the most closest together so that we could get more at once. It worked in the beginning but then it got tough because some of these were tricky to find. The only problem that we faced was trying to find the student mural, we headed the wrong direction and thought the mural was located in certain area but it came out being in the other side of the school. Some of the solutions that we came up to solve some of the problems were to ask student around the campus. It didn't really help because they had no idea either. I think the scavenger hunt was a test of creativity that most of the people in class failed. Most people weren't thinking outside the box of what was actually the directions for this assignment. But overall it was a good test to make everyone learn to think differently and that things do not have to be taken in a literal way.

What Is creativity ?

Creativity for is defined as something out of the normal something that took someones work to be created with ideas. I think that a simple plant is not very creative at all cause you just water it and it grows. It doesn't take someones ideas to create this.


Now in this case a pot made like the "Kool-aid" guy in a sculptures class might seem more of something creative that took work and ideas to create
