It is well recognized worldwide that Edward de Bono is a pioneer in designing tools for teaching creative thinking skills since late sixties last century.

To put this experience in an academic setting, the views of those who wrote on the subject will be sought. Hopefully this study will lead to enhance the performance of the lectures who teach the subject at IIUM; it will also help both internal and external auditors to improve teaching the subject, and other experts in Muslim world will be able to give feedback on the experience.
