  2. PMI: Plus, Minus, Interesting The PMI – a crystallization of the open-minded attitudeinto a tool that can be used deliberately. The PMI is never intended to prevent decision or commitment but to ensure that this happens after both sides of the matter have been considered andnot before PMI is used to avoid being emotional in considering an idea CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  3. What do you think of the following situation? Students should study in a classroom without chairs and desks to sit and write on. CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  4. PMI: THE TREATMENT OF IDEAS P=Plus The good things about an idea – Why you like it M=Minus The bad things about an idea – Why you don’t like it I=Interesting What you find interesting about an idea In considering an idea, first state the good points, then the badpoints and the points which are neither good nor bad, but are Interesting. You can use PMI as a way of treating ideas, suggestions, andproposals. CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  5. EXAMPLE Idea: All seats should be taken out of buses CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  6. CAFConsider All Factors CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  7. That the person selling really owns it. The price of the car The type of car and colour. The engine power and the speed of the car That all the mechanical parts are working perfectly. That it is big enough for the family • PRINCIPLES • Doing a CAF is useful before choosing, deciding or planning. • It is better to consider all factors first and then pick out theones that matter most • If you’ve left an important factor, your answer may seem rightbut later would turn out to be wrong. • CAF can also be used to assess other people’s thinking.

  9. C&S - Consequence and Sequel C&S is a crystallization of the process of looking aheadto see the consequences of some action, plam, decision, rule, invention, etc. C&S deals with what may happen after the decision has beenmade. There are immediate consequences as well as short-term (1-5 years), medium-term (5-25 years) and long-termconsequences (over 25 years) CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  10. C&S is concerned with action of some sort, either the actionthat one intends to take oneself or the actions the others are Taking. The intention is to enlarge the view beyond the immediate effect of certain action. When CAF is concerned about a situation at the moment, thenC&S is thinking a head obviously, consequences also can turn up as part of PMI, but the important point is, C&S is focused Directly on the future CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  11. C&SExample A man introduced rabbits to Australia to provide hunting for hisfriends. The immediate consequences were good because his friends had plenty to shoot at. The short-term consequences werealso good because the rabbits provided an alternative source ofmeat. The medium term consequences were bad because therabbit multiplied so much that it became a pest. The long termconsequences were very bad because the rabbits spread all over Australia and did a great deal of damage to crops. CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  12. Practice A new electronic robot is invented to replace all human labour in Malaysian factories. Do a C&S On this. CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003

  13. PRINCIPLES of usingC&S ? PROJECT The world runs out of oil and gas.What would happen CoRT 1/Thinking Techniques/2003
