Making Creativity
BUSM 49001 Creativity and Innovation in Business | Creativity Exercise 1 (5%)
Introduction
For this exercise, you will use
Bing Chat to make a conceptual representation of creativity. Before beginning the assignment, you will have explored scholarly definitions of creativity through two assigned readings: “The Standard Definition of Creativity” and “Beyond Big and Little: The Four-C Model of Creativity.” Please achieve reading comprehension prior to starting this exercise.
Deliverables
The key deliverables for this exercise are:
1. A conceptual representation that expresses creativity in a novel and effective manner.
2. A written elaboration that explains how the conceptual representation expresses creativity with quotes from the assigned readings integrated.
3. Affirmative comments on classmates’ posts.
Artificial Intelligence
Use of Bing Chat to create a conceptual representation of creativity is permitted for this assignment. However, you are required to create the idea for the image and prompt. Any other use of artificial intelligence is strictly prohibited. For example, using artificial intelligence to generate the written elaboration or comments upon other classmates’ submissions will activate Sheridan’s academic integrity process.
Process
1. Reflect upon the Standard Definition of Creativity and the 4Cs Model, consider:
· Generating as many examples of each of the 4Cs as possible
· Generating as many associations with creativity as possible
· Generating visual metaphors that express creativity as possible
2. Select one or two options that are particularly novel and effective:
· The design idea should be novel—it expresses creativity in an unexpected or original manner.
· The design idea should be effective—the audience can understand and appreciate how it expresses creativity.
3. Draft text-to-image prompts for Bing Chat.
·
