Art

Every adolescent can be creative, whether they believe theirselves to be creative or not. Creativity can manifest itself in lots of different ways. It is important to create a positive and safe environment where a teenager can express and explore their creativity.

Being creative has proven to be an important factor in a young person's development, research has shown that being creative is a useful tool to express one self, it can help a teenager understand their thoughts and emotions as well as those of others, creativity can make them more empathetic. Empathy helps build relationships.

Creativity doesn't come naturally to everybody, sometimes it has to be pulled out from with in the person, you should encourage yourself yourself to dedicate a set amount of time every week to 'study' or be creative.

Creativity should be part of the standard curriculum.

In this course we allow all of our students to upload their artwork and they can discuss how they came up with the idea and what it represents. Or, they can just upload their art work and that is that. This course is very much driven by the students at ScholarKid with staff overseeing the comments section.
