Paving the way for creativity using ICT

This interesting article story (CLICK HERE for first article story) written in the star newspaper about how a guy as young as 15 was able to develop games which were of demand as part of a hobby from his bedroom and how from there was scouted by Yahoo and even offered him a job after graduation. Its really inspiring that how we as teachers should be there to cultivate these 21st century children in using ICT starting from young as they grow older and learn more, with the basics they had previously would eventually be able to come up with greater ideas/ games/ technology for the future. Also I liked this 2nd website where the creativity in people could even come up with inventions like a game using excel spread. (CLICK here for article link).
