Creativity Crisis Article

I just read this really cool article about the creativity crisis.  The author of this article records "Overwhelmed by curriculum standards, American teachers warn there’s no room in the day for a creativity class."  It was talking about how America is slowly getting rid of classes like art and adding more math and English classes.  It also talked about how young children start out with a lot of creativity and they grow out of it.  It has been proven that when the same children have taken creativity tests as they grow older, their scores decrease.  This is the opposite of all of their other standardized test scores focused on academic subjects.
This creativity crisis in America can potentially stop new ideas and inventions from being developed.  It can cause us to lose our global standing in the area of development.  I believe that adding new art and music classes, as well as redesigning some of the curricula to focus on these classes will help rekindle the fading spark of creativity in America today.  We can also weave creative activities into the regular academic classes like math and science.
