essay practice - IF POSSIBLE, USE COLORS WHEN CORRECT MISTAKES. THANK YOU :) - Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Technology has made children less creative than they were in the past. Use specific reasons and examples I don’t think that technology has made children less creative than they were in the past. Children today are as creative as they were yesterday, the only difference is that nowadays they have access to new and different tools that they can use to express their creativity. In facts, thanks to technology it is possible to learn how to paint with acrilic colors or with wathercolors, how to sculpt, how to build new objects and maybe toys by using old materials that are easy to find at home or in every store. Nowadays, the possibilities to increase children’s creativity are endless. By checking some internet sites such as You Tube, everyone can find thousands of video tutorials that teach people how to paint, drawn, sculpt and so on. These videos are very easy to watch and follow, and the art tecniques are very well explained and good for every artist’s level, from beginners to advanced. This is how both parents and children can be able to improve their artistic skills when they want and without paying private lessons. For example, I love modern and abstract art but I’ve never took any lessons because they are too expensive and they are always in the morning, when I had classes to follow at the university. So I started to watch video tutorials on You Tube and I started learning how to paint. Of course my first art works were not exactly perfect, but after a couple of weeks and a lot of practice I got the results I wanted, and today I can say that they are pretty good. By using my spartphone and more specifically an app called Pinterest I have access, among others, to a lot of artistic and DIY projects for children of every age: babies, toddlers, teens and adults. These projects are shared from people from all over the world, and thanks to this app, it is very easy to come up with new ideas for funny and interesting art projects. For example, when I babysit and I’m at home with the baby and the toddler I usually take care of, I can always find several ways to let them work on their art skills and make them happy only by checking Pinterest. In conclusion, I strongly believe that technology helps parents and their children to be more creative, compared with children of the last generations that could have access to only few tools for practicing and improving their creativity.
