Creative thinking, What it that?
There are two ways of thinking creatively to solve problems, one is Convergent Thinking the other one is the opposite of it, Divergent Thinking. Convergent is a way to think which takes all the information and knowledge and turn it into an answers or a solution to a problem. Opposite of it, divergent thinking normally involves brainstorming and looking for alternatives way to solve problems.
People may only think Convergent-ly, others may think Divergent-ly, but face it or not, both ways are need in our life to solve different problems.
Mindmap, what is is?
Mindmap is a very useful way to both memories things and also find solution to problems. by making a mindmap, you may see things like never before. A mindmap is able to help people memories paragraph and paragraph of words. How on earth do it do that? This is because, human's mind memories better when colors and pictures are involve, since mindmap is mostly about colors and picture, it help people to remember things better.
Stereotype?
Stereotype shape the public thinking. Like when some one says apple, what will come to your mind? Red? Green? Most people will think of the type of apple that they are frequently sees or told. But when you let a 4 y.o. child color a picture of apples, you will notice that all kinds of colors will come out, blue, purple, chocolate. Why? because as we grown up, others has always remind us that apple is red, apple is green, if you color apple as blue it's wrong. keep on repeating the process until the information of apple is red kept deep down in our mind. This is when stereo type occur. But this is something that could be a good thing as it could be something bad too. We'll loose some of our creativity because of the logic, but will keep us safe from eating the blue apple.
