En Nasir, without bored, continued taught us about EUREKA. EUREKA is a Greek word that brought mean " I found it!"


Then, he also told us about development. It is the final stage of creativity. Development is acting on an idea to make useful, functional, possible and profitable.


En Nasir also gave us 12 puzzle questions to us to ask..and the answer is very creative! everybody laughed with most of the answers which were so easy, and actually did not require critical thinking. :D

Today we learned a new topic which was LATERAL THINKING.LATERAL THINKING was the idea of Edward De Bono.


Lateral Thinking is the opposite of vertical thinking.


In brief, lateral thinking is solving problems by an indirect and creative approach, typically through viewing problems in new and unusual view.


In contrast, the vertical thinking is solving problems using conventional logical process.


We also discussed about several ways of defining lateral thinking and characteristics of lateral thinking.
