INTRODUCTION
|
A goal of this unique
training is to teach participants how to apply “yes-no” game
during TRIZ education and develop and include the games for
teaching different schools subjects.
To
simplify OTSM-TRIZ education to children and young people, a
non-linear approach was developed by the members of Jonathan
Livingston Project targeted at teaching OTSM-TRIZ to children.
The
approach is aimed at developing a system of practical thinking
skills for managing complex non-typical problem solving.
Teaching OTSM-TRIZ is a new subject and developing appropriate
skills takes time and often creates difficulties for teachers
and parents. In order to integrate teaching OTSM-TRIZ with other
school subjects or family activities, a training system based on
the Yes-No games and creating and solving various riddles was
developed by Nikolai Khomenko and Alla Nesterenko. Her book The
Country of Riddles is available free of charge at
www.jlproj.org.
After
the training course, the acquired skills can be used by teachers
and parents for creating educational games to teach kids and
youngsters to main concepts of Classical TRIZ and OTSM and
develop a system of appropriate thinking skills. These skills
are helpful not only for further studying TRIZ and OTSM but for
many regular school subjects by creating and playing “yes-no”
games, inventing tasks and riddles for the games, and
simultaneously studying other subjects. The course will be
conducted in 3 parts: full day (morning and afternoon) and
morning of next day. The course involves intensive practice.
TRIZ: Stands for "Theory of
Solving Inventive Problems"
OTSM: Stands for "General Theory of Power Thinking"
