Convergent and Divergent Learning

In class today, I learned about this really interesting topic.  We were comparing convergent and divergent learning/thinking.  I only learned about this last night and I am already really interested in it.  A famous retired college professor named Sir Ken Robinson had a speech/lecture about it and it was really cool.  Main idea: Convergent thinking is when people start at different facts to get to one "correct" answer and Divergent thinking is when people start at the same main idea but branch of and come up with dozens of different outcomes.  This Guy is very smart and I think that it would be a good idea to listen to one of his speeches.  I feel smarter already.
