In "The Writer's Toolbox" different methods for idea generating were described. These methods included creating mind maps, concept maps or word lists. Freewriting and brainwriting were also suggested. Writing allows designers to solidify and multiply ideas.
I felt that the article portrayed the methods as very structured. The author made it seem as though one had to follow specific instructions when brainstorming. I prefer that ideas be generated in a free, individualistic manner. In this way the article did not sit well with me, but I though the suggestions for freewriting might be something I will use.
