Lateral thinking is solving problems through an indirect and creative approach, using reasoning that is not immediately obvious and involving ideas that may not be obtainable by using only traditional step-by-step logic. The term was born in 1967 by Edward de Bono. In this module we look at what lateral thinking is and how it can be helpful in problem solving. We explore idea-generating tools intended to break current thinking patterns.
We are continously working to improve and update our material to ensure it is meeting the needs of students and teachers alike.

Our programmes include a range of learning materials to support both teachers and students in the classroom. Content wise, each module is different but some components are common to all to provide assessment tools for teachers and familiar references for students.
We believe that some topics are approached more powerfully by bringing in animation. That is why some of the topics have videos to illustrate the learning points
