WHAT YOU SAY

 EFFECTIVE THINKING CHALLENGE

A stimulating and enjoyable day in the form of a competition in which teams of pupils seek to solve a succession of "thinking challenges", each designed to utilise a specific problem-solving strategy.

Challenges may be linguistic, logical, visual, "hands-on" or require a flash of creative inspiration.

After each group of challenges, pupils are encouraged to analyse why certain approaches proved more effective, thereby being introduced to a diverse range of problem-solving strategies.

Although the Effective Thinking Challenge can be condensed into  a half-day session, the full day allows more opportunity for reflection - as well as allowing pupils time to devise their own challenges.
