Individual creative practice is very important in
this modern era because it is needed in developing skills. In education, individual
creative practice is needed for students in order to have the skill to make new

world of profession. For example, artist need creativity for making new ideas

of one’s own. Creativity goes way beyond your ability to paint a nice picture
and towards challenging your whole way of thinking about things. Creativity

improves overall well-being.
In addition, creativity can help you build better
relationships. Imagining how things look through another person’s eyes can
enhance your empathy and understanding. And deciding to try a different way of
responding than usual when someone irritates or annoys is a creative way to
avoid difficulties. Creative practicing can also help boost up self-confidence.

in their own abilities. For example, showing your work to other people and let them give their comments or opinion on
your work to help you develop even more. Someone who has developed their
creativity through practice and experimentation and training can be a great
asset. To be able to quickly and effortlessly come up with creative
solutions in an instant, will make them highly desirable for nearly any
industry, especially creative industries.

done. This included the young and old. Everywhere in the world plagiarism
occurs. This happen because everyone has their own attitude and problem. Some
people plagiarize because of their laziness, copy text from journal, books and
internet to make their work with less effort then to using their own ideas.
Some people plagiarize because bad in managing their time. This always happens
to individual who have their schedule full. This type of people will do their

| Plagiarism |
In academic setting, the risk of getting caught
is on the rise as teachers are learing to access the same resources as
students. If the plagiarism is discovered, the penalties range from academic
probation to complete expulsion with incident marked on one’s permanent record.
Plagiarism in professional world is something harder to detect but the consequences
are more serious. The higher standard for behavior among working adults
condemns the professional plagiarist to public discredit and subsequent
blacklisting. Even if the plagiarism never becomes widely recognized, the act
itself goes against professional courtesy and respect for colleagues. The least
obvious disadvantage of plagiarizing is that it doesn’t cost any creative
effort on the plagiarist. Without the conception and realization of new
thought, progress, both of the individual and the affected society/company,
grinds to a halt.
As conclusion, individual creative practice is
very important to help developing the country in order to gain a better life
for all and this should be practiced often to be expert in it. Without
practice, it will be hard to compete in the world of profession. On the other
hand, plagiarism shouldn’t be practice.
Otherwise without realizing, it will become a habit. It’s better to do yourself
then copying other people’s work.
