Crazy 8’s
In just 4 minutes, you’ll get your first ideas on to paper and get the creative juices flowing. This activity will help you imagine multiple ways to implement a single “idea” that your team has.
Choose an idea you selected in the previous lesson, and use Crazy 8’s to imagine 8 different potential implementations of it. (Remember: visual thinking is something everyone can do, regardless of drawing skill. You can revisit the tips here & here.)
