Thinklets … Tools for the mind.
Thinklets can be viewed as mental triggers or “thought switches”
that activate thinking patterns not commonly used.
In its purest sense a Thinklet can be as simple as: asking
the right question at the right time.
Or a Thinklet may provide small bursts of thinking stimuli (expert
facilitator questions) embedded in traditional thinking techniques,
templates, and worksheets.
Thinklets help alter routine thinking patterns
and activate not commonly used patterns leading to new associations,
relationships, and ultimately new innovative ways of thinking. There are
five kinds of thinklets.
- Trigger Questions: Ask the right question to help the mind
find the right answer.
- Thinking
Techniques:
Instead of routine thinking, use fresh thinking patterns.
- Templates: Guide your thinking with forms,
worksheets, and models.
- Tutors:
Clarity and just-in-time understanding is essential for effective
thinking.
