Last week, Dave Powell explained the term ‘value proposition.’ This week, Dave will discuss a theory used in e-Learning, called ‘lateral thinking.’
So, I ask you, do you know your e-Learning Lingo?

Mary Kay: OK Dave, so what does ‘lateral thinking’ mean?
David Powell: Lateral thinking, a term coined by Edward de Bono, focuses on working around preconceived concepts and perceptions. It is about reasoning in ways that are not immediately obvious, using ideas that may not be reached through traditional step-by-step logic.
Mary Kay Lofurno: OK Dave. Thanks for that explanation. Have a terrific afternoon.
David Powell: You too, talk with you soon!
