Higher order thinking is a cognitive process that allows people to think about and solve problems at a more complex level than they would ordinarily be able to. This type of thinking is key to problem solving and creativity, and can be applied to a wide range of situations.
There are a few key things that you need to do to be able to use higher order thinking effectively. First, you need to be able to break down problems into smaller, more manageable pieces. Second, you need to be able to look at the problem from multiple perspectives. Finally, you need to be able to find solutions that work for all involved parties.
All of these skills can be honed through practice. The best way to practice is to take on puzzles and challenges that require higher order thinking. This will help you to develop the skills needed to problem solve and come up with creative solutions.
