Heuristic Methods and Creative Writing


Hi there!

I hope, you’re doing pretty well today!


Now I'm developing my creativity with a help of some heuristic methods. It'll help me to write exciting public speeches in the future.
 The methods that are used: “one letter” and “random words”, “what if…” and “six thinking hats activitie” .  
       I.   First, I should pick one letter to write down 10 words:
w- wings, wool, wolf, wonder, wave, word, work, waiter, wage, war
1.2.   Using this website  ClickMe!, I’m to write a paragraph:

It is a typical Western tavern where people like playing dominoes and drinking ale. Whenever you come here, you hear the sound of a good Scottish drum. Local public is a real noisemaker here. You won’t find anything like this anywhere else!



         1.3.  What if there were no desks in the classrooms, but only beanbags?


Students would…
1.  have only speaking tasks
2.  use mobile phones/tablets to make some notes
3. sell these bean bags using Avito app to buy desks
4.  ask their fathers to make some wooden desks
     5. spend more time doing home tasks (there is no possibility to do it in the classroom)
6.  get rid of bean bags and write down lectures lying on the floor 
 7.  have classes in the canteen

          II.  “How many foreign languages should be taught to students in school?”


A topic sentence:
Nowadays it is important to learn 2 languages: one of them should be European and the second one should be Asian.



·    White thinking hat – 1. English language is  Universal, then Chinese is the language which most people on the planet speak. 2. The earlier student start learning the second foreign language, the more successful the educational process will be.

·    Red thinking hat – The second language is better than one because you communicate with different people all over the world. It is less difficult and time-taking to learn only two languages.

·    Black thinking hat – Learning 2 languages may be difficult more many students. Besides, to know language well we have to practice it 6 hours a week, but there is no time in the school schedule.

·    Yellow thinking hat – We’ll use modern technologies and memory techniques to ease the process.

·    Green thinking hat – We can do optional classes for some students who are interested in learning the second language.

·    Blue thinking hat – There are some difficulties but the realization of the idea is possible. 


Thank you for your attention!

  1. Thank you, Lena. You certainly did well today.
    A short feedback:
    1) I like the story you made up with the random words, it looks like a commercial 
    2) Why are your “what if” ideas so negative? Though really funny!
    3) I’m impressed how you turned the topic sentence in the language speech. Just wow!
    4) You got all the hats right, I like your ideas.
