10 Questions to consider for thinking of ideas

• 1. What exactly is the problem that I wish to explore?

• 2. Who, in fact, says that this really is a “problem” that needs to be solved?

• 3. What are all of the current methods or actions that are being used or have been developed in an attempt to solve this problem?

• 4. What exactly is my best idea concerning the solution to this problem, and why is it unique in contrast to current or past solutions?

• 5. How can I create a tangible prototype/solution for my idea within the confines of my personal skill and the resources I have available?

• 6. What appropriate methods for testing my prototype can I create, conduct, and document with the resources I have available?

• 7. How can I obtain real, valuable data and present that data to prove any of the following: that my solution worked, that my solution made little or no difference compared to the results of existing solutions, or that my solution was unsuccessful despite a merited attempt?

• 8. If I cannot gather real data by experimental means, how can I justify that my solution has merit?

• 9. How do I best present my entire idea to an audience and justify my actions, thoughts, and results concerning the project?

• 10. How can I document my work so that what I have learned can be shared beyond this course?
