Dr Edward De Bono’s Thinking Hats

Six Thinking Hats This framework for thinking was developed by De Bono in 1985 It defines six metaphorical hats representing different modes of thinking It encourages pupils to think in a variety of ways

When you change from one hat to another, you change thinking modes Each of the hats is a different colour and represents a different mode of thinking When you ‘put on’ one of the hats, you only think in that particular mode When you change from one hat to another, you change thinking modes It encourages co-operation Enhances quality of thinking Can be used at all levels Summary

YELLOW HAT The yellow hat is for optimism It looks for logical, positive views of things It looks for benefits Typical questions: Why is this worth doing? How will it help us? Why will it work? What are the advantages and benefits?

BLACK HAT The black hat points to concerns or ‘down-sides’ The black hat points out the disadvantages and problems with things The black hat is for critical judgement and caution. Typical questions: What are the weaknesses? What is wrong with this idea?

RED HAT The red hat is concerned with feelings, opinions, hunches and emotions The red hat allows you to express your thoughts without explanation, or the need to justify them Typical questions: What do you feel about this right now? How do you feel instinctively?

GREEN HAT The green hat is for creative thinking and new ideas The green hat is for additional alternatives, suggestions and proposals Typical questions: What are some other ways to solve this problem? Can we explore some new suggestions?

WHITE HAT The white hat deals with data and information The white hat looks for gaps in knowledge and tries to fill them Typical questions: What information do we have? What information is missing? How are we going to get the information?

BLUE HAT: The blue hat is used to organise the thinking processes being used. The blue hat sets the agenda for thinking. The blue hat can ask for other hats. The blue hat asks for summaries, conclusions and decisions. Typical questions: What have we done so far? What will we do next?

“The six thinking hats is a method for doing one sort of thinking at a time. Instead of trying to do everything at once, we ‘wear’ only one hat at a time” Edward do Bono Teach Your Child to Think Viking 1992
