Convergent and Divergent thinking, Logical Mindmap, Stereoptypes

This week Mr Yap teach about convergent and divergent thinking. What i understand is that convergent thinking is bring all idea together and set up a criteria which does not require creative. Divergent thinking is we can have many possible solution which is creative. While logical mind map is to arrange all the information that i get. Stereotype is held a group of people or someone by some characteristics.

Logical mind map can visual out all the idea and make relationship and link between them. A mind map can help us to do work easier and easier to recognize. People always use stereotypes when doing mind map because stereotypes provide a quick identify for a group or a person that easily recognized by audience. So, we does not need to explain much and it make it easy to understand by people.
