It’s Time for New Thinking!
Dr Abraham Maslow suggested in the 1950's that we need 'a new sort of person' to deal effectively with the challenges of accelerating change. That call has been echoed in more recent times by educationalist, Dr Howard Gardner and the OECD both demanding a new focus on education and students who can demonstrate what they can do rather than what they know.
Dr Edward de Bono anticipated these needs publishing his CoRT Programme of 60 thinking 'tools' in 1970 and The Six Thinking Hats Framework in 1985. In this New Millennium, New Thinking, 'de Bono Thinking', is the most popular medium in schools for giving direct attention to simple and effective thinking skills.
