Introduction
For Activity 7, we were taught some thinking tools like Slice and Dice and Scamper that would help us to think fast when we are stuck in a situation, in a creative way.
Group Activity
For the group activity, we used the tool Slice and Dice. Our object was a kitchen knife. We listed the various attributes of a kitchen knife like the emotional, descriptive, social. process and functional.
Individual Task
For the individual task, we used the scamper tool. I chose the kitchen tool sieve and applied SCAMPER. This helped me in coming up with new ideas in which the sieve could be used and innovative. The questions that were shown in the presentation helped me in coming up with new ideas quickly.
Reflection-
The tools that were taught us today gave me a new way of thinking things out of the box.
The questions that were given to us in the presentation helped me in exploring new ideas that could be possible.
I was able to think fast and find a way to apply the idea to the object that was practically possible
Instead of just one, many ideas that were possible were noted down and the best one that could be sketched easily and looked more useful/practical was chosen.
The group members helped each other come up with ideas if anyone was stuck.
For the group task, everyone worked together and were able to come up with the attributes quickly.
Learning Mantra of the day
Be creative and don't be afraid to experiment
