Ask each team of 3 – 5 participants to sit at separate round tables (the round tables help although are not necessary) Place a large stack of index cards in the center of each round table Have the topic or idea to be “brainstormed” written on a white board or power point slide - “What can we….?” “What can be done to ….?” ex.
