Do you have the right attitude toward your eLearning?

I have been participating in a MOOC that I am involved with through NovoEd, called Creativity: Music to My Ears. It started last week and the instructor, Tina Seeling from Stanford University shared recently that if we want to be creative then we must be driven and have attitude! Previously in recent posts I have talked about her thoughts on Imagination (see Is there only one answer to the eLearning problems that you look at? Then you are not being imaginative enough…). Today I would like to focus on her analogy of us being more like quilt makers rather than puzzle builders.

Having attitude also means that we must have motivation and confidence! If we do not have this “attitude” then we will not solve the problem. She reminds us that is not easy to come up with really big ideas let alone bring them to life. But she shared that most people see themselves as puzzle builders who are looking for a specific piece of the puzzle. Or what if they are building a puzzle and not know what piece is missing? So then you can’t finish the puzzle.
