Alan's Creativity Challenges 2003-29

Honoring Dr. E. Paul Torrance

Dr. E. Paul Torrance, most world renown researcher of creativity and creative
thinking, passed away on Sunday July 13th in his home peacefully. For over 50
years Dr. T. researched creativity and the teaching, counseling, coaching and
training of creative thinking. The school program that his late wife, Pansy
Torrance, and he set up many years ago, the Future Problem Solving Program,
continues to teach children the Osborn-Parnes Creative Problem Solving Model and
many tools of creative thinking.

Each year in many US states and countries around the world: elementary, middle and
high schools, set up teams of students to learn and use the O-P CPS. Then in each
participating schools and communities competitions are held at the local level.
The winners go onto the state or country level. Finally teams from many countries
gather to compete at the International Competition each year.

I have attached one of his most recent products...the Torrance Incubation Model
for teaching.

From it comes this week's CC.

Tickle the imagination and Arouse Curiosity.

MONDAY
Choose any object randomly and tickle your imagination by pretending to be an 11
month old baby and then explore it as if you are one experiencing the object for
the very first time.

TUESDAY
Choose any object randomly and tickle your imagination by pretending to be a cat
and then explore it as if you are one experiencing the object for the very first
time.

WEDNESDAY

alien and then explore it as if you are one experiencing the object for the very
first time.

THURSDAY
Choose any object randomly and tickle your imagination by pretending to be an
unsighted person and then explore it as if you are one experiencing the object for
the very first time.

FRIDAY
Choose any object randomly and tickle your imagination by pretending to be a robot
and then explore it as if you are one experiencing the object for the very first
time.

Have fun.

Alan in honor of my greatest teacher, mentor and loving friend, E. Paul Torrance
