I had shifted my focus away from myself, and to those I was trying to serve. Like a flash, I realized that I had actually been doing this for quite some time, I just hadn’t noticed it happening. I was not at all thinking about my presentation of the lesson, but upon the reception of the message. I was filled with compassion for her, and a pure desire to say and do what was in her best interest. I was trying to understand where she was at in life, and what I could possibly say that would help her. When my zone leader was teaching, I was prayerfully searching her face to see how she was responding to the lesson. During that lesson, I was fully engaged and constantly trying to see things from this lady’s perspective. ![]() Pretty typical for a missionary afternoon.įor some reason, I was thinking back on the lesson when- AHA! It dawned on me. So, we shared a few things, had a prayer, and unsuccessfully attempted to schedule a return appointment. At the time, we had a guideline to not spend more than 30 minutes teaching a single female. She let us in and allowed us to share a message with her. We knocked on a door in an apartment complex, and were greeted by a woman- probably in her mid thirties. I’m with my zone leader, basically an experienced missionary responsible for the training and coaching of a dozen or so other missionaries. I’m a nineteen year old missionary, around 9 months into it, knocking doors.

It discusses how to facilitate and assess Aha! creativity in mathematics classrooms. Since Aha! is a common human experience, the book proposes bisociation as the basis of creativity for all. The collection illuminates the creativity of the eureka experience in mathematics through different lenses of affect, cognition and conation, theory of attention and constructivist theories of learning, neuroscience and computer creativity. It lays down the basis for a new theory integrating creativity with learning to describe moments of insight at different levels of student development. It establishes relationships between Koestler's bisociation theory and constructivist learning theories. ![]() Campbell 15 Bisociative Structures Hannes Stoppel and Bronislaw Czarnocha 16 Conclusions Bronislaw Czarnocha 17 Collection of Aha!
