Encyclopaedia Of World Great Educational Thinkers (2 Vols.)

Through intentions we choose experiences that change how we think. As a fixed thinker we choose known or knowable experiences that make us think like a professional, and as a fluid thinker we choose complex experiences that make us think creatively. Each process is different, coming from different parts of our minds and requiring different kinds of behaviours. Think of the fixed as reading about teenage behaviours and the fluid as actually raising a teenager-they're profoundly different ways of educating ourselves.
