Group project Brainstorm session
When meeting in your problem-solving group, you will be discussing in detail the problem. After clearly identifying, defining, and clarifying the problem, your group will create one solution that helps to solve the problem you described. There will probably not be a solution that is a 100% fix, and that’s okay. Your group can talk about the strengths and the weaknesses of the solution to meeting the problem. Remember, take good notes while meeting with your group.
All of the steps in the organizational format below should be explained in great detail, not just notes. Brainstorming is all about the details, so help me to understand that your group talked in depth about your subject by clearly explaining the group’s thoughts on each of the four categories below.
Organizational Format for Brainstorming Session
Identify – clearly state the problem you are trying to solve.
Define – thoroughly describe the problem. Why does the problem exist? What are the cause and effects? Are there drawbacks to solving this problem?
Clarify – who is impacted by the problem? How are they impacted?
Solve – offer one solution to satisfy the problem. Include the strengths and weaknesses of this solution as it relates to the problem you described.
The Brainstorming Report should be at least 1 full single-spaced page in length. Remember, brainstorming is all about the details, so this report should explain in detail the four steps your group used to find a solution.
If you work with others in your class on this project, you need to turn in your own original brainstorming report. You may not write up a single report and turn it in for all group member
