IDEO: Brainstorming • What did you like about the IDEO brainstorming process? • (You can refer back to your essays)
Tell some stories • Please tell some stories about past successful/good brainstorming you engaged in • Did it match the IDEO process?
IDEO: Brainstorming • What did you dislike about the IDEO brainstorming process? • (You can refer back to your essays)
Tell some stories • Please tell some stories about past unsuccessful/bad brainstorming you engaged in • Was it bad because it went against IDEO suggestions? • Was it bad because it followed IDEO suggestions? • Or was it bad for other reasons?
Discussing Assignment 9 • Do you think the ideas in this book about how to brainstorm are good in general? What’s good in specific? What’s bad in specific?
Assignment 10 • Problem Shift “The Fresh Mind”
Assignment 10 • Your goal is to take someone else’s data set from the class • And improve their model any way you can • Could be new features (preferred option!) • Could be a different statistical/data mining framework
Assignment 10 • Write a report that discusses your process • You don’t need to prepare a presentation • But be ready to discuss your work in class
Assignment 10 • You will be graded both on • Your work on the new data set • Whether you obstructed someone from working on your data set • You won’t be graded on whether they do a good job with your data • But you will be graded down if they don’t get your data until Saturday night, or if you don’t give it to them in a usable form, or if you don’t explain what “RYAN7” means

It’s the 7th variable that I made for Ryan’s class)
