I have just placed an example of real life PMI use over in the Real Life Examples group.

Now Will,

You know that there is no such thing as freemium potatoes. That's because everyone, including Irish people, already understand the value of potatoes.

Most websites, on the other hand, should be freemium. Until people use a particular website, they will probably not understand its value well enough to want to pay for it.

Graeme,

Just a few quick questions. Are you saying that CoRT 1, CoRT 4 should not be taught to Primary School Children. If so, would you elaborate on that. Should the others be taught to younger people?

I do believe you are 100% correct that the tools need to be used after the lessons, in general clases. Especially the Tools in CoRT 1/CoRT 4.

I also find it a shame the way people focus on CoRT 1 and CoRT 4.

CoRT 6 - TEC PISCO is an excellent thinking system in itself that can integrate with the tools from CoRT 1.

CoRT 2 - 3 - 5 also have valuable lessons for life. Although (In my view) not as reusable as tools, the lessons spend some time on the meanings of important words.

I believe the CoRT programme should be taught in every (Primary) School as a Thinking Class. Then that school could use the tools when teaching other subjects in secondary.

Numeracy - Literacy - Operacy (Thinking)

Thanks for your time,

Will.

PS. Phil, please send me freemium potatoes.

Guys (Dennis and Graeme) can we please put our guns back in our pockets. Breath in a deep breath of tolerance and try to get along for the greater good of what we are trying to achieve here. Edward's abiding view is never to argue or throw stones. We are doing him an injustice on the site if we cast aspersions on each others style.

I see my link did not show up in my previous post. visit "ecybermission" with the appropriate "dot com" afterwards and the appropriate http colon slash slash www dot before.

Hi, all,
Yes, of course, education is not complete until you can put your thinking skills to work. And part of it is finding adequate topics to work on--not too trivial and not too overwhelming.
In the USA we have programs for students to help them do just that. Although not directly related to thinking skills, they make good "playgrounds" for putting thinking skills to work. Here is a link to one of the programs that is available in the USA for "middle school" students--in 6th through 9th grades:


The program is run by volunteers, so no one has to pay to join.
I do not know what is available for children in Europe, Asia or other parts of the world. Might be a good topic for someone's research.
