What Is The Six Thinking Hats Method All About?
Get ready to dive into thoughtful discussions after teaching your students about De Bono’s Six Thinking Hats! What is the De Bono Thinking Technique? Here’s a quick rundown if you’re new to the game!
The 6 thinking hats method was developed by Edward de Bono. It is designed to help students develop deeper thinking habits, organise group discussions, and approach problems from different angles. This technique is a structured method for group discussion and individual thinking. It involves six metaphorical hats, each representing a different type of thinking. Each hat has a different colour and coincides with different thinking prompts to help students remember the kind of thinking involved.
