EMERGING PATTERN AND
THE IMPORTANT ROLE OF
CREATIVE IMAGINATION
IN PUTTING TOGETHER THE
VARIOUS PART OF A WHOLE  ​
 OBJECTIVES

At the end of the lesson the students should be able to:​
​
Identify the different contribution of the various parts of a whole;​Discuss the different
contribution of the various parts to a whole; and​

• According to Merriam Webster’s dictionary, part is one of the often indefinite
subdivisions into which something is regarded as divided and which together
constitute the whole. On the other hand, whole means something ​constituting
a complex unity: a coherent system or organization of parts or working
together as whole. It shows the totality of the pieces and segments that
somehow we consider as parts.​

Understanding the parts of the whole is very important as it gives a clear

view of the basic elements that make up a whole. We can identify that
something is part of a whole if we know what all is that something about

​
 A trend is characterized by many as a elaborate thing that makes the whole
idea of the trend working and producing an emerging pattern. Just as the
totality of the person is being examined, there is also a need to look at the
small segments of every event or situation ​that keeps it progressing to
develop trends.​
For Karl Marx, “the overall strategy of scientific knowledge, as it develops in
any given period, is determined to a significant extent by the particular
treatment of the categories of the part and the whole and the specific
interpretation of the related question of wholeness.” ​
The headquarters of Samsung Electronics, Toyota Motors, and Apple Inc.
including its subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, and regional offices are all parts of a
whole. These multinational corporations have facilities and other assets in other
countries that are part of the entire operation and continuous existence of each
multinational corporation. It maintains a central office located in one country,
which coordinates the management of all its offices, such as administrative
branches or factories. They must function in accordance with the set of conditions,
rules, and standards of the company. The functions and responsibilities of these
sub offices are prescribed by the head office. Thus, they are made aware of their
responsibility for the success of the whole operation of the company.
THE IMPORTANCE OF
CREATIVE IMAGINATION
IN PUTTING
TOGETHER THE VARIOUS
PARTS OF A WHOLE​
Creative imagination ​
Imagination does not work alone when it comes to wanting to bring something to life
and allowing it to step out of your mind. Creativity kicks in when an individual wants
to make something out of their imagination. Creativity can be shown in millions of
ways depending on the individual’s personality and abilities.​
Imagination plays an important role in problem-solving and creativity because
it allows us to find new solutions to problems and consider other ways of doing
things. It also helps us understand complex issues more easily because we can look at
them from a different perspective.  “Imagination is the key to innovation.” So think
for a moment and reflect on how you could use your imagination more effectively and
deliberately.​

​
The design of the gadget, the organizational structure of a business Enterprise, and the
capacity and strength of the industrial product all Emanated from the creative
imagination of a person or group of individuals. Almost everything that you use,
consume, or enjoy is a product of creative Imagination guided by intuition.

The use of creative imagination is not only limited to the creation of goods and
services. It can also help you solve problems and help you come up with new ideas and
explore possibilities.

FIVE WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR CREATIVE THINKING

​ ATHER WHAT INFORMATION YOU ALREADY HAVE​

• G
• CONSIDER THE OBVIOUS SOLUTION OR PROCESS​
• BRAINSTORM ADDITIONAL SOLUTIONS
• CONSIDER HOW THE TOPICS CONNECT​
• APPLY THE SOLUTION
GATHER WHAT INFORMATION YOU ALREADY HAVE​
​
One of the most important steps in the creative-thinking process
is preparation. You can create a more thorough solution when you
gather all of the available information. Consider the
different aspects of the challenge you are attempting to solve. If a
colleague has already compiled information on the problem, you
can ask them to share their data and findings with you. ​
​
CONSIDER THE OBVIOUS SOLUTION OR PROCESS​
​
You may be addressing a challenge that has a simple solution.
While it is important to know the most obvious solution or
process available, you only want to use this information as a
foundation for finding a more successful answer. Use
this approach to develop additional ideas that require a more
creative perspective. Considering the simple solution, you can
begin to form other resolutions that could be less time consuming or
more financially viable. ​
BRAINSTORM ADDITIONAL SOLUTIONS​
​
Allow time for brainstorming as many solutions or processes as
you can. When you brainstorm, think of every possibility, even
if you don’t initially think it will work. Considering every process
may create a foundation for the right answer. Compile a list of
your strongest ideas. ​
