Description

A de Bono Teachers' Academy publication, this guide book is the first in the CoRT series. We recommended that you teach CoRT 1 thinking tools first as they lay the foundation for thorough thinking and the exploration of challenges. CoRT thinking often starts in schools as a Gifted Student program and then makes its way to the rest of the student population. There is also an emphasis on developing job ready students for the workforce. These thinking tools will help equip college students with the skills necessary to work in environments where change is constant, flexibility is necessary, collaboration skills are in demand, and critical and creative thinking skills are essential.

The 10 Breadth thinking tools are designed to equip students and teachers with thinking skills that will help broaden their thinking about any topic, situation, or challenge. In the thinking of both children and adults there can be a tendency to take too narrow a view - for example, to take up an instant judgment position on an issue and then to use their thinking to support the position, rather than to explore the issue.
