This activity is meant to be a fun – to see your creativity.
- Take 5 minutes to jot down all the uses for a cardboard box. Include every possibility that you can think of, even if it seems unreasonable. The list you write is an example of divergent thinking.
- Next, look the list over and determine which of the possible uses are most usual or most likely to be worthwhile. The list you write is an example of convergent thinking.
- Then write the definitions for 5 key terms. {You will choose the 5 terms from the Thinking section beginning at p. 347.} The definitions must be in your own words. If appropriate, include examples.
