    Activities
    • Watch Elizabeth Gilbert's TED talk on creativity.
    • Read a few of the articles on idea generation techniques.
    • Find at least one method yourself and add it to the course wiki by Wednesday.
    • Pick one of the methods and use it to generate ideas for one of the prompts on Miro.
    • Share your ideas with the course on Miro
    • Use your ideas to deliver a short speech (1-3 minutes) on the topic you chose. Try not to write an entire text but instead note down any important keywords or arguments you want to mention. 
    • Record yourself and rewatch the recording like last week. Take notes on what you would like to improve. Again, you can share your recording with other students to get more feedback.
