1. PERSONAL PLAN &
EMOTIONS

2. Thinking – it involves manipulating mental representation and
prevents us from making a mistake ( Robertson, 1999 ).
A . CRITICAL THINKING - requires logic and coherence as we try to
analyze, synthesize, evaluate, and interpret information rather than
simply apply technical abilities. ( Andolina, 2001).
- we try to evaluate, and formulate good arguments, we arrange
information coherently by making connections to other ideas,
considering alternative sources and assessing their implications,
looking for cause and effect, and making generalizations.
Metacognition - refers to the awareness and knowledge about one’s
thought process and the ability to use the knowledge in managing
one’s thinking processes, such as problem-solving and
comprehension (Bruning, Schraw, Norby, & Ronning, 2004 )

3. B. CREATIVE THINKING – the production of effective novelty
through the operation of our mental processes. (Halford, 2004 ).
Creativity depends not only on our ability to do things but to
represent what has been done. Creative thinking must be able to
represent relations. A creative person can see the relationship of
things around them through art, music, dance and movement, and
other forms of creative activity.
ENHANCING CREATIVITY THROUGH MIND MAPPING
Mind map - is a graphic technique that provides a universal key to
unlock the potentials of the brain. (Tony Buzan, father of Mind
Mapping) This is one technique he designed and endorsed because it
fosters whole-brain development.

4. In a mind map, one concept, idea or topic is
represented using an image. Keywords are then
associated with it and are placed in major branches
that are color-coded. These branches spread out into
twigs containing keywords. Each branch and twig
contains only one keyword.
Mind mapping does not
only create and structure
ideas but also it helps
store new information
and test them.

5. UNDERSTANDING THE INTENSITY AND
DIFFERENTIATION OF EMOTIONS
Emotion - is your reaction to any stimulus and comes
from your limbic system. It is a natural instinctive state
of mind deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or
relationship with others. (Oxford Dictionary). Emotion
finds a way in expression.
Facial expression communicates our emotions, it can
be misleading, exaggerated, or minimized. Facial
expression is universal and can be seen in humans as
well as in animals. We learn facial expressions that are
recognized or approved by one’s culture.

6. According to Paul Ekman and Carrol Izard 7 emotions
have universal facial expressions
anger, contempt, disgust, fear, joy, sadness and
surprise.

2 TYPES OF EMOTIONS

9. 2 TYPES OF EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION
( Paul Ekman )
Emotions are measured through self-report instruments or psychological
tests. They can be measured through physiological ways such as monitoring
the heartbeat, blood pressure, sweating of palms and even through blood
chemistry and brain activities. It can be measured through behavioral
manifestation such as facial expressions and tone of the voice.
MACROEXPRESSIONS MICROEXPRESS IONS
typically last between 0.5 – 4 seconds and
involve the entire face. These are emotions
that we do not intend to hide and occur
whenever we are alone or with family or
close friends.
are expressions that go on and off he face in a
fraction of a second, as fast as 1/30 seconds.
Can happen so fast that one cannot recognize
or see them easily.
Ex. emotions expressed through macro
expressions include anger, shock,
sadness, happiness and excitement.
Ex. you give a friend a gift she does not like
and your friend does not want to see his or her
true feeling this occur too fast that you might
never recognize because she or he smiles that
you only see,

10.  Emotions tell you something is wrong – when you fell that something is not
right,listen to your body. Your intuition may be guiding you on what to do. Your
feelings of unease or discomfort can alert you on a potential danger of misfortune
these feelings are prompting you to respond and guide you not to make hasty
decisions.
 Emotions allow you to maintain and develop your relationships into meaningful
ones. Shame, guilt, and pride are negative ones. Emotions allow us to realize that
we have done wrong to our family, friends, neighbors and thus we make an apology
for such actions. Positive emotions such as being loved, feeling accepted or
understood warms the heart and makes relationship valuable.
Emotions create opportunities to see things meaningfully. We see the purpose of
our lives and we become more capable of making and doing our choices.
 Emotions bring out feelings of self-respect and self-worth. The more that you
feel good about yourself, the more open you are for the many opportunities and
challenges in life. Live your life to the fullest and celebrate your emotions.
