What will happen if someone approaches a problem in an unexpected way? What turns problem-solving into creative discovery?

This book, based around a story in which sixth-graders making and flying paper airplanes, relates how one student considered the problem and reached an unexpected, creative solution as he considered the problem from a different perspective. Suggesting that people who don’t follow conventional paths are likely to discover innovative ideas and solutions, it advocates the fostering of imagination and creativity.

Proponents of alternative thinking [better known as thinking outside the box] recognize that stepping away from conventional thought is often a risk, but the potential for a new kind of breakthrough may be the result.

A DVD is included with this book.
