Now days, it is big social problem that Korean students are considered not to have enough ability to compete with students from other country. Even though the amount of studying time in Korea at high school is the highest in the world, the way students learn at school doesn't seem to be efficient at all. It means our education is not based on creative activity which is critical for students to possess ability that lead them to success in their life. Therefore, our students should be educated in environment where a creativity is evaluated as the most important factor in our society.
First of all, adding a creative activity on lecture is helpful for students to be interested in studying. Unlike the lectures that make students feel bored with studying those subjects, education based on creativity are very useful to encourage students to take part in class more actively and let them to understand the basic principle about subject without struggling to memorize it. For example, I liked to participate in science experiment at chemical class when I was middle school student because it was really interesting for me to examine various chemical substances by myself. Due to the intriguing experiment, I never missed A grade on chemical class although I never spent lots of time studying textbook of it. On the other hand, some people claim that if the creative activity on lecture is too much excessive, students may neglect on studying basic knowledges in their text book. However, research by 'Time' magazine refutes their idea saying that students at sweden where creativity or imagination is important factor in education shows greater understanding of fundamental principle about science than korean students who are educated at school where memorizing knowledges is prevailed.
Second, our society requires a person who is equipped to lots of idea from creativity activity. Since we are living in a society where changing rapidly occurs, it is necessary that students have an ability to come with up an idea that others couldn't think of it. For example, Steven jobs, CEO of Apple company, is known for creating an i-pod which is estimated as the best product in the world in 21century due to his creative activities while he was dropping in various classes at his university. Futhermore, research by 'Economist' in 2007 shows that 85% of companies are eager to select an applicant who is full of brilliant idea which is expected to contribute to company's success.
