Divergent thinking is the expanding thinking field and convergent thinking is the narrowing thinking field. And according to Mr Yap Sau Bin, some people are good at divergent thinking. However, some people are good at convergent thinking. Usually no one are good at both divergent and convergent thinking.

Firstly I completely don't understand what that means, then after the class, it's a new word to add in my dictionary, although I not yet completely understand. So I use online dictionary and successfully get the word.(http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/stereotype) This is what I found:

2.a plate made by this process.
3.a set form; convention.
