The Cognitive Research Trust was founded by Edward De Bono in July 1969. The trust uses a number of thinking tools based on the premise that thinking is a skill that can be developed and learned. CoRT lessons have been taught in schools worldwide, including the third world. Bangladesh has profited by application of CoRT tools.[clarification needed][1][2]

CoRT Thinking Tools

There are sixty CoRT tools organized in six different categories. Each category includes ten thinking tools. Pergamon Press published the first edition Teacher's Notes in 1973 and the second edition in 1986.
