How to promote thinking?
What is the definition and purpose of thinking skills?
The appropriate definition for the concept of thinking skills still discussed, because most of thinkers have different one. For example George (1970) saw as a thinking a process for problem solving and complex natural behavior. Edward de Bono (1976) also associate with lateral thinking skills which means not only to resolve the result of an issue, but also thought to see something based on different perspectives to solve the problem.
Mayer (1977) also view thinking as involving the supervision of certain mental operations that occur in the mind or cognitive system a person who seeks to solve the problem.
Another definition is quite interesting to think about is the definition given by Vincent Ryan Ruggiero (1984):
"Thinking is any mental activity that helps formulate or solve a problem, make a decision, or fulfill a desire to understand. It is a searching for answers, a reaching for meaning. "
In addition there is the broader definition of thinking and have a close relationship with this definition, which clarified the definition by John barell (1991):
"... I define thinking as a search for meaning and understanding that can Involve the adventurous generation of options, he attempt to arrive at logical, reasonable jugements, and reflection in the process."
While thinking about the different interpretations-headed, but generally most prominent thinkers agree that thinking can be associated with the process of using the mind to make decisions and solve problems.
Based on several definition that have been submitted by the figures above, so keep that formulated:
"Thought is the process of using the mind to find meaning and understanding of things, exploring various possible ideas or inventions and to consider appropriate, to make decisions and solve problems and thus make the process of reflection and Metacognition suffered."
What is a thinking defect?
We often only think to do something or respond to a stimulus. However, we often make mistakes while thinking. Have you ever made a mistake while thinking?
i. Thinking in a hurry
ii. A narrow mind
iii. Ambiguous mind
iv. Mind the distorted curve
How can we improve the thinking skills ?
