Metacognition: creativity essay


Throughout the construction of my essay it was difficult to think of an effective topic, I was trying to think of something that could be explained thoroughly. I went back and reviewed the creativity articles to refresh my mind on the major ideas of the articles. With the information I reviewed, it helped me think of what I could apply the main ideas of creativity to. I began thinking of certain courses that I have taken throughout high school, which seemed to lack the application of creativity. I had an idea of a few classes that could fit the topic of the essay, but I wanted to select the one that would best apply in this situation. It was difficult to come up with a topi for this essay, and i wish i would've  had a more effective manner of coming up with an idea. It was a very time consuming process for me and i feel like it may have effected my ability to create a great paper. Thinking about what to write was difficult because my ideas weren't backed completely with strong support so it was a challenge to think of  a good idea.

I would like to improve my thought process and the manner I come up with an idea. I think I should have a more effective manner that would take up last time. It would be more efficient to plan my idea quicker, or have a method which I could use to help focus my idea. I was surprised to realize how much time the planning of this essay actually took me. I was hoping it wouldn't consume as much time, but for future essays I hope to construct a better planning process, using what i learned from this experience
