Games about training divergent thinking

Divergent thinking is a good way to exert creativity. Creation often requires our thinking to diverge first and come up with as many possibilities as possible; Then regroup, that is, analyze and compare various possibilities and get the final result. The following is the game I brought to you about training divergent thinking, I hope you like it!

Examples of divergent thinking forms

1, stereoscopic thinking

When thinking about problems, jump out of the limitations of points, lines and planes and think in three dimensions.

Three-dimensional greening: the roof garden increases the green area, reduces the occupied area, improves the environment and purifies the air.

Three-dimensional agriculture and intercropping: for example, mung beans are planted in corn fields and peanuts are planted in sorghum fields.

Three-dimensional forest: shrubs are planted under tall trees, grass is planted under the shrubs, and edible fungi are planted under the grass.

Three-dimensional fishery: cage fish culture makes full use of water surface and water body.

Three-dimensional development resources: coal, stone and developed products.

What other three-dimensional thinking forms can you think of?

2. Plane thinking

Divergent thinking form characterized by conceiving two-dimensional plane graphics, such as drawing the center and circumference with a pen and a piece of paper.

This discontinuous figure is difficult to draw with one stroke.

? 3. Reverse thinking

The way of thinking contrary to the usual way of thinking is also called reverse thinking. Because many things in the objective world can produce B, B can also produce A, accordingly, Italian scientist Volta 1800 invented the Volta battery. Conversely, electrical energy can also produce chemical energy. Through electrolysis, British chemist David 1807 discovered seven elements, such as potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, strontium, barium and boron.

For example, the size of sound can cause the corresponding vibration of metal plate, and conversely, the vibration of metal plate can also cause the change of sound size. Edison invented and made the world's first phonograph by improving the telephone.

So how to do reverse thinking?

1) Backward thinking on the dependence conditions of things. For example, if a child falls into the water and saves people from the water, people will come out of the water. Sima Guang's rescue is to break the jar and get the water out of people. This is reverse thinking.

2) Reverse thinking about the development process of things. For example, people walk up stairs, elevators take roads, and people don't move.

3) think about the position of things backwards, such as carrying out activities if I am like this.

4) think backwards about the result of things. It is said that Tolstoy, a great Russian writer, designed such a question:

Once upon a time, there was a farmer who left some cows after his death. He wrote in his suicide note: His wife got half and a half heads of all cows; The eldest son gets half and a half of the remaining cows, which is exactly half of his wife's income; The second son wants to return the remaining half of the cattle and half of the head, which is exactly half of the eldest son; The eldest daughter gave the last half and half of the head, which was exactly equal to half of the cow that the second son got. As a result, no cattle were killed, and there was nothing left. How many cows does the farmer always leave behind?

In commercial marketing operations, there are often applications of reverse thinking: for example, people in the watch business like to say that their watches are accurate, but a watch factory says that their watches are not accurate enough, and there will be an error of 1 second every day. Without losing customers, everyone agrees with them and buys them enthusiastically; Make two squares and four triangles with eight matches (matches cannot be bent or broken). Generally, it is easier to make a triangle in a square from the diagonal, but the length of the diagonal is greater than the side length of the square, so conversely, to form a triangle with the same side length, it is necessary to stagger the diagonal.

4, lateral thinking (bypass thinking)

A way of thinking that is inspired by things that are far from the problem, so as to solve the problem.

At the end of 1: 19, maunier, a French gardener, thought of an example of cement reinforcement from the entanglement of plants.

When a person tries to think about a problem, a dominant focus will be formed in his brain. Once inspired by other things, it is easy to reflect on this dominant focus and solve problems.

5, lateral thinking

A form of thinking as opposed to vertical thinking. Longitudinal thinking is a kind of convergent thinking that goes straight up and down through logical reasoning. Lateral thinking is to find the answer to the question from the horizontal when the vertical thinking is frustrated. Just as time is one-dimensional and space is multi-dimensional, horizontal thinking and vertical thinking represent the complementarity of one-dimensional and multi-dimensional. British scholar Debono first put forward the concept of lateral thinking. The purpose of his creation of the concept of lateral thinking is to put forward complementary and opposing thinking methods in view of the defects of longitudinal thinking.

6. Multi-channel thinking

Solving problems is not a dark road, but a multi-angle and multi-faceted thinking. This is the most common form of divergent thinking (reverse, lateral and lateral thinking is one of the special forms).

7. Combinatorial thinking

Starting from one thing, taking it as the divergence point, and connecting with another (or some) things as much as possible, a new way of thinking with new value (or additional value) is formed.

The first great combination was that Newton combined Kepler's three laws of celestial motion with Galileo's laws of vertical and horizontal motion of objects, thus establishing classical mechanics and causing a technological revolution marked by steam engines; The second great combination was that Maxwell combined Faraday's electromagnetic induction theory with Lagrange's and Hamilton's mathematical methods to create a more complete electromagnetic theory, which led to a technological revolution marked by generators and motors. The third great combination was Dirac's combination of Einstein's theory of relativity and Schrodinger equation, which created relative quantum mechanics and caused a new technological revolution marked by atomic energy technology and computer technology. So Einstein said: Combinatorial action seems to be the essential feature of creative thinking.

There are many examples of combinatorial creation in science, business and other industries. Of course, the combination is not a random patchwork, but an organic best combination that must follow certain scientific laws. The information intersection method created by China thinking demon Xu Guotai is a good tool for combinatorial thinking.
