research suggests that human thinking has two
distinct phases which are complementary in making
decisions or solving problems. The first, or
production phase, is associated with our creative
thinking- seeing the familiar in a novel way,
generating a variety of ideas, and a willingness
to take imaginative risks the second, or
judgment phase, kicks in our critical thinking,
as the mind goes to work evaluating,
distinguishing fact and evidence from sense
impression, and running the tests of logic to
apply what has been produced (Ruggiero, 2009, pp.
7-8). Chapter 1 The Brain Mind at Work

list of the worlds inventions is in itself a
good reminder that we each stand on the
shoulders of those who have gone before us. It
also brings to mind the fact that we take a lot
for granted. Doing this exercise we may even come
to think that all the worlds inventions are
already here and in use. What an interesting
creativity-blocker that could be! Then delving
into the mind of any inventor exposes us to the
very creative process itself, to the ways
critical thinking shaped original ideas, and to
the interesting steps that brought an innovative
idea to market. Even the naming of an invention
can in itself invite us into the creative
process!

assumptions continually in a typical day, and
many of them are hidden. Clearly this is an
important potential obstacle of clear or critical
thinking. Stephen Covey recognized this when he
said, We simply assume that the way we see
things is the way they really are or the way they
should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow
out of these (ThinkExist.com). Marshall McLuhan
called us to an ongoing review of our
assumptions Most of our assumptions have
outlived their usefulness (ThinkExist.com).
