# UX II - Ex 5 - Ideation
2 years ago
**Instructions:**
To find creative solutions to your problem statement, use one of these techniques in groups of 5 people, twice.
Gather in groups of 2. During the first run, one is the facilitator and the other is the time-keeper and in charge of logistics. Switch roles for the second run.

Get as many ideas as possible within a defined timeframe, and narrow them down to 3 main ideas with a voting process (in pair or in group). Take pictures!
**Deliverables:**
- A PDF document that includes the script with all the steps + logistics
- Pictures of the 2 sessions
- A PDF document with 3 ideas that came out the 2 workshops.
- Upload the documents on Github, in a zip folder named “ProjectTitle_Name_FirstName”, with all project deliverables as follows: “Name_FirstName_DeliverableName_Date_VersionNumber”. For example, the first deliverable can be named as “Doe_John_MidFiPrototype_05242024_V1”.
- Add a title within all written documents.
- Pay attention to the global aspect of the deliverables. They must be clear, simple and easy to read. You can get inspiration on canva.com but don’t overload your design with too much details!
