Brainstorming



Brainstorming is a creative process that is used as an

early step in generating possible solutions to a problem.

 Judgment is withheld to create a long list of ideas,

including ones more creative or daring than those

initially considered.


Brainstorming is a problem-solving technique that is not

 always easy for students. However, once mastered it is

 a transferable skill that they will be able to utilize in

education and the world of work.



Many students feel they must come up with the correct

answer, whereas brainstorming is a way of generating

ideas to be examined later. Brainstorming generates

new ideas and creative thought.



It totally encourages the free flow of ideas that builds

on previous knowledge which enables students thinking

 process. When brainstorming you note everything and

then sort out the good from the bad. .




Brainstorming is a large or small group activity that

encourages students to focus on a topic and contribute

to the free flow of ideas.



The teacher may begin a brainstorming session by

posing a question or a problem, or by introducing a

topic.



Students then express possible answers, relevant

words and ideas. Contributions are accepted without

criticism or judgement and usually summarized on a

whiteboard by the teacher or a scribe as the ideas are

called out.These ideas are then examined, usually in

a open class Discussion format.


 




Brainstorming Activities for Students



There are several tools available to make it easier for

students to participate in a brainstorming activity.

 These are great for encouraging students to come

 up with a large number of ideas fairly quickly.


Pre-printed mind maps, concept maps, online

 mapping tools, and software such as Video and

PowerPoint provide a great structure for students.


Place the topic or concept in the middle of the mind

map and branch off of ideas as primary or secondary

thoughts. These brainstorming activities for students

are probably the most tried and tested that you

remember yourself for effective brainstorming.


Example:



In the classroom, Learners brainstorm the topic of

smoking by writing all the words they associate with

 it on the board. This is then followed by a discursive

essay-writing lesson on the topic.



Brainstorming can encourage learners to think more

freely and creatively than if they were doing a more

controlled planning exercise.It allows learners to remember what they know, and to teach each

other. It is a dynamic and stimulating way to lead

learners into a topic.

Reverse Brainstorming

solutions.



 


What are some brainstorming strategies that you use in the classroom?

Stop-and-Go Brainstorming



A problem-solving technique in which a group


alternately engages in brainstorming solutions without


evaluation for ten minutes then engages in a short


period of evaluation. The group continues alternating


between brainstorming and evaluation.




Phillips 66 Brainstorming



A problem-solving technique in which a group of six

people brainstorms for six minutes and then a

5 Problem-Solving Activities for the Classroom | Resilient Educator



Effective brainstorming: how do


 I achieve it?



1) In a small or large group select a leader and a

scribe (or this may be the teacher).


2) Define the problem or idea to be brainstormed.

Make sure everyone is clear on the topic being


 explored.


3) Set up the rules for the session. They should include:


  • letting the leader have control

  • allowing everyone to contribute

  • suspending evaluation of ideas until all ideas are

    gathered the validity of all contributions


recording each answer, unless it is a repeat setting a

time limit and stopping when that time is up.



4) Start the brainstorming. Have the leader select

members of the group to share their answers.

The scribe should write down all responses,

 if possible so that everyone can see them.

Make sure not to evaluate or criticize any

answers until the brainstorming is complete.



5) Once you have finished brainstorming, go through

 the results and begin evaluating the responses.

This can be done quickly by a show of hands to

 rank the ideas.



6) Some initial qualities to look for when examining


the responses include:


  • looking for any answers that are repeated or similar

  • grouping similar concepts together

  • eliminating responses that definitely do not fit



7) Now that you have narrowed your list down

somewhat, discuss the remaining responses

 as a group.


It is important for the teacher to:


  • establish a warm, supportive environment

  • emphasize that a quantity rather than the quality of ideas is the goal, and that it's okay for students to think outside the box

  • discourage evaluative or critical comments from peers during the ideas-gathering phase

  • encourage and provide opportunity for all students to participate

  • initially emphasize the importance of listening to expressed ideas, and model printing and recording of the ideas, then read each contribution to the group.




Some of the most widely used brainstorming tools for


 logging thoughts and suggestions include:


  • flip charts and whiteboards,

  • sticky notes in different colors,

  • a computer with a data projector, and

  • flexible brainstorming software



If you look closely, you’ll notice there’s one thing these tools

 have in common: they all serve as impromptu (or ready-

made, in the case of software) brainstorming templates

where visual cues encourage collaboration.


By using interactive tools like these, ideas can be grouped

 and rearranged on the fly, making them easier for everyone

 to see, understand, and expand on.



 


How to Make Group Work More Efficient - TeacherVision


To set yourself up for success, you should


begin every brainstorming project by


gathering your team together, and:



1-getting clear on the problem or objective at hand,


2-reviewing your company’s knowledge mapping  assets


when they’re available, and


3-choosing the most relevant brainstorming methods



Different brainstorming tools can help you work through


ideas and problem-solving suggestions in different ways.


And since teams, challenges, and goals vary, it’s worth


trying out a variety of tools to determine which ones work


best for you.

Why use brainstorming?



By expressing ideas and listening to what others say,

students adjust their previous knowledge or

understanding, accommodate new information and

increase their levels of awareness. Brainstorming's

main purposes are to:



1-focus students' attention on a particular topic



2-generate a quantity of ideas



3-teach acceptance and respect for individual


differences.



4-encourage learners to take risks in sharing their

ideas and opinions.



5-demonstrate to students that their knowledge and

 their language abilities are valued and accepted.




6-introduce the practice of idea collection prior to

beginning tasks such as writing or solving problems.



7--provide an opportunity for students to share ideas

and expand their existing knowledge by building on

each other's contributions.
