Creative thinking (a companion to critical thinking) is an invaluable skill for college students. It’s important because it helps you look at problems and situations from a fresh perspective. Creative thinking is a way to develop novel or unorthodox solutions that do not depend wholly on past or current solutions. It’s a way of employing strategies to clear your mind so that your thoughts and ideas can transcend what appear to be the limitations of a problem. It is a way of moving beyond barriers. As creative thinkers, we train students to be curious, optimistic, and imaginative. They see problems as interesting opportunities. At Sackhumvit students enjoy art and craft, jigsaw puzzles, and science experiments.
