In the uniform problem scenario, we were empathising of what students and adults felt when their uniform doesn't fit on their child anymore due to online learning (not wearing them a lot). Then we were defining the problem that was needed to be solved. Then we were creating some wacky ideas of how we could solve the uniform problem.
