Yet, they both involve "thinking." (Some have spoken of critico-creative thinking to emphasize the positive, imaginative
aspects of critical thinking; however, this ungainly expression has not caught on.) Culturally, we need to discard the belief that critical thinking is sufficient: it is a quite valuable part of thinking but it is totally inadequate in the absence of the possibility systems that the generative, productive, creative, and design aspects of creative thinking throw up. For superior outcomes, since nature has equipped us with complementary ways of processing information, whole-brain thinking is needed. To this intent, thankfully, Howard Gardner's notion of multiple intelligences refreshes and expands traditional views of human potential.
