After ideas have stopped flowing from the participants the cards are<br />
clustered and evaluated for utility or feasibility. This can be done by<br />
giving the participants a certain number of dots to place on the most<br />
feasible or useful cards. Those cards which receive the most number of<br />
dots are then included in the next session of the workshop.<br />
If participants are not used to this kind of anarchic association, you<br />
may introduce this technique with a small exercise to make clear that<br />
you are foregoing logical or restrictive thought patterns. For example,<br />
you can show a paper clip and ask participants to enumerate its<br />
potential uses.<br />
Remarks: You must differentiate the wild and the rational phase of this<br />
exercise, otherwise the participants might not get down to talking about the<br />
useful ideas. The exercise should not last too long, as brainstorming is only<br />
a liberating moment in an important planning process. The main rule is:<br />
everything is allowed to be expressed and no critique or arguing over ideas.<br />
This has to be done later in the rational discussion phase.<br />
