LA 4: De Bono
Research "De Bono's Hats" and write a page describing what that's all about and determine what sort of hat you're most likely to wear.

Learning Activity 4: De Bono Six Thinking Hats Edward de Bono is a pioneer in the field of the teaching of thinking education. The six thinking hats method is based on his extensive experience and research into thinking skills across different ages and abilities, ranging from six year olds to senior corporate executives. It is de Bono’s belief that simple methods used effectively are more valuable  than complicated methods that are difficult to understand and confusing to use. When we attempt practical thinking, there are three fundamental difficulties: 1.       Emotions We often have a tendency not to think at all but to rely on instant “gut feeling” emotion and prejudices  as a basis for action. 2.       Helplessness We may react with feelings of inadequacy: “I don’t know how to think about this. I don’t know what to do next.” 3.       Confusion We try to keep everything in mind at once, with the result being a mess! The six thinking hats method is an easy and practical way of overcoming all three difficulties. Emotion, handled illogically, can be disastrous. The six hats method allows students to use emotions and feelings in a constructive manner. Helplessness arises when we do not have any general purpose thinking actions that can be taken. Six hats method can define “next steps”. Confusion arises when we try and do to much at once. Often when we try and think of something, our minds go in a hundred directions at the same time. The six hats method allows people  to take one direction at a time. Six Colours Six Hats In de Bono’s method, thinking is divided into six different modes, each represented by a different coloured hat. RED HAT Represents Emotion- Intuition, feeling and hunches, how do I feel about the problem. YELLOW HAT Represents the Good points- Why is this worth doing? How will it help us? Why can it be done? Why will it work? BLACK HAT Represents the Bad points- Caution, judgement, assessment. Will it work? What are the weaknesses? What is wrong with it? GREEN HAT Represents Creativity- different or new ideas, suggestions and proposals. What are some possible ways to work this out? What are some other ways to solve the problem? WHITE HAT Represents Information- questions. What information do we have? What information do we need to get? BLUE HAT Represents organisation of thinking- thinking about thinking. What have we done so far? What do we  do next?

T8 Learning activity 1 to 5 (one)

LA 1:Creative methodsRead the sections (see link) on "Creative methods" from Robert Harris and provide 1 example of each for the 5 types of Creative methods: Harris, Robert. "Evaluating Internet Research Sources." VirtualSalt. 15 June 2007.

Evolution. The wheel!

Synthesis. Woolworths Put, chemists, bottle shops and petrol up the road to get all our money...and there only a greengrocer

Revolution. Using the sun to power cars, using the energy from a treat mill to charge batteries to power light bulbs...(that’s my idea)

Reapplication. Using polymers to create modern more flexible surf boards instead of fibreglass

Changing Direction. A bad four way intersection, traffic lights to slow....lets build a circle in the middle and call it a roundabout..that’ll speed things up.

Thought for the day
