Divergent vs. Convergent
Divergent thinking: thought process that follows logical steps to attain solution.
There are many different solutions
convergent thinking : ability to give answers to standard questions that do not require creativity
HIGH I.Q ALONE DOES NOT PROMOTE CREATIVITY
curiosity, willingness to take risks, persistence
creating lists of questions, meditation,, brainstorming, subject mapping , keeping a journal , creating artwork and free writing are all techniques that help creativity.
most effective in situation when answer already exists, simply needs to be recalled. no room for ambiguity in answers
linked to knowledge as it involves manipulating existent knowledge by means of standard procedure.
used as tools of broken solving- use critical thinking
often used in conjunction with divergent thinking
there is one best solution although it is difficult to determine
when it's too complex, you have to rely on intuition, gut feeling
by finding a solution, you are changing your world view
targets your conception of the world as a whole - there is a relation to the conception of the fast and world view
when you solve your own problems, you become stronger, problem-solving skills are improved
