Brainstorming

Authored by Rachel S. Haselby

This activity is the third of five activities in the Design Thinking series within CLOVER's Computer Science curriculum. Since you’ll build on today’s activity, do your work well and save what you create today. You’ll need your notes and sketches later in the series.

By the end of this activity, you’ll be able to create a range of ideas that have potential to solve a problem, and you’ll weigh the quality of different ideas produced through brainstorming.
