French Fries, Lateral Thinking and the Education of Teachers

Horton, Lowell

Illinois Schools Journal, 56, 1, 3-8, Spr 76

Notes that lateral thinking is represented by the person who is able to exhibit exploratory behavior, while vertical thinkers take the most reasonable view of a situation and then proceed logically and carefully to work it out. Much of education and teacher education in particular reflects vertical thinking. (Author/AM)
