MindSpin
MindSpin is a dynamic and energetic brainstorming method that encourages individual and group contributions. Participants generate a wide range of ideas quickly by writing them on index cards and physically engaging with the process through a 'slam' technique.

- 1
Divide participants into teams of 3 to 5 and seat them at separate tables.
- 2
Place a stack of index cards in the center of each table and display the brainstorming topic on a whiteboard or slide.
- 3
Give each participant 5 blank index cards and explain that they will write one idea per card during the session.
- 4
Set two five-minute rounds for participants to write as many ideas as possible and slam the cards down face down to their right after each entry.
- 5
If a participant runs out of ideas, they can take a card from the person on their left to inspire new thoughts.
- 6
Participants can either slam the borrowed card, use it to spark their own idea, or add a comment before slamming it down.
- 7
Repeat the rounds until the time is up, then review and discuss the collected ideas.
