Seeking the 'right' answer.

Explanation:

Roger von Oech established 10 mental locks or barriers which hinder an individual's creativity. He stresses the need to unlock or remove these locks and barriers in order to enhance one's creativity.

According to the instance given in the question, 'trying to seek the right answer' would be the barrier that may hinder the creativity of a student. In most educational institutes, the need to answer or find the correct answer is being emphasized and encouraged.

This attitude or method of solving problems usually subdues creativity within a student. This is because there is less encouragement in finding alternative solutions. It does not emphasize on other options or possibilities. Rather it focuses only on finding the 'right' answer.
