12. • Yes & No!
• Most of our ideas never left the initial thinking
stage, some got to the prototype stage and some
made money. We were never driven to make
money and so we did not put a lot of effort into
marketing, mass production etc.
• Our creative & innovative minds did however
prove to be of value in our work environments (in
class discussion with real examples)
13. • Thinking group activity
• Why do we come up with ideas?
• Can ideas be forced? Can we make ourselves be
innovative?
• What are some of the things that stop us from making
ideas into reality?
