Week 2

Scanning of the doodle to be updated.

1. Blog about your experience of using the 3 creativity techniques (SCAMPER, Reversal, Chain Reaction). Compare these techniques with the general brainstorming technique you used (during the 50 uses of a "marker" session). Can you get a sense of the pros and cons, the similarities and differences, between these different techniques? Were you able to fit Don Norman's 3-Layers (RBV) of design as the criteria of quality?

The SCAMPER technique was quite useful as we think about how we could use it to substitute the design or material and along the technique, we brainstorm about how we could go about using it eventually to get it work. The reversal technique worked not exactly well, but it was still fun even though we just had to think the opposite of what we wanted. ANd the chain reaction was totally cool, it was fun and easy, making things just connect to it the way you think.

I think the SCAMPER and the chain reaction techinique is quite interesting and is much more useful than the time i was doing the 50 uses of "marker" session as we could think more with instructions and guides.

The pros and cons were definitely obvious and definitely incomparable for some as for the chain reaction worked really good for me. Though the SCAMPER technique also did quite well comparing to the reversal and my personal thoughts.

2. Pay attention to how you think, throughout this week, and take notes in your Mistake Journal + Blog. How aware are you in general of your own state of mind and your surroundings? What are some typical contents usually running around in your mind. Please jot down what these contents are (note the specific details, and then try to classify the different categories of thoughts), and how they interact with each other. Diagram these connections in your Mistake Journal.

A specific suggestion to observe your thoughts
: Think of a happy event, and another unhappy/stressful event. What are the mental events and mind contents that appear when you think of these events? Draw this mind-content diagram out as a deep-doodle in your Mistake Journal. In other words, what are the thoughts and emotions that create this happy/sad event? What is the stimulus, and what are the consequent effects? Show a cause/effect diagram of your thought processes.
