Brainstorming

Brainstorming is a way of generating creative solutions to a variety of problems. During a brainstorming session all members of the group should contribute ideas as quickly as possible. These ideas are then evaluated at the end of the session. 

- Come up with as many ideas as possible

- Encourage all kinds of ideas -- both sensibly practical and wildly impractical

- Don't criticise or evaluate ideas

- Make sure everyone contributes

- Encourage participants to build on or combine ideas

- Appoint one member to record all the ideas

- Have fun!
