Ideas are not often plucked out of thin air. The SCAMPER brainstorming technique uses a set of directed questions to resolve a problem (or meet an opportunity). It can also turn a tired idea into something new and different.

Our modified brainstorming technique is an assessment tool Extension professionals can use to generate new ideas. The modified brainstorming technique capitalizes on creativity at the individual level and helps maximize the contribution of the whole group. The technique leads to generation of useful ideas in a mutually supportive setting for a minimal time investment. This tool is effective for relatively small groups within Extension and may be applicable to other outreach and nonprofit organizations.
Brainstorming is a popular tool that helps you generate creative answers to a problem. It is mainly useful when you want to break out of stale, established patterns of thinking, so that you can develop new ways of looking at things. The aforementioned also helps you overcome many of the concerns that can make collection problem-solving a sterile and substandard process. Though group brainstorming is often more effective at generating ideas than normal group problem-solving, study after study has revealed that when individuals brainstorm on their own, they come up with more ideas and often better quality ideas than groups of people who brainstorm together.
Current study assumes that SCAMPER is a convenient technique to develop creative thinking skills. In this respect it is aimed in the study to investigate the effect of SCAMPER on developing creative thinking skills. For this purpose, the main research question is: How much is SCAMPER effective in increasing sophomores' Test for Creative Thinking-Drawing Production (TCT-DP) scores? A one-group pretest-posttest design was used in this study. A total of 14 participants were assigned to receive the experimental training. A unique program developed by the researcher for the experimental group. The findings of the study reveal that SCAMPER training significantly increased TCT-DP scores.

The goal of this study was to identify whether SCAMPER technique can facilitate development of creative and critical thinking in writing tasks. 12 secondary school students were required to apply SCAMPER technique in composing short stories and poems. The students were assigned into Group 1 that focused on composing short stories and Group 2 that focused on writing poems using the technique. Pre-test and post-test were administered and their responses were assessed using Creativity Rating Scales and SOLO Rubric respectively. The findings showed that students who applied SCAMPER in composing short stories performed better in post-test than the group that utilized it in poems. Hence, the application of SCAMPER technique improvising short stories is more effective in developing critical and creative thinking.

The purpose of this paper was to trace the origins of brainstorming, to understand how the process evolved from its introduction in 1953 by Alex Osborn, a creativity theorist, and businessman, and to identify how and why brainstorming has come to be used today. After reviewing several studies of brainstorming and exploring its history, it was found that two prominent schools of thought influenced the design of brainstorming sessions in the 1950s. One school of thought emerged from a study conducted by Yale University, which held Alex Osborn’s design in a controversial light, and the other remained truer to Alex Osborn’s model of the Creative Problem Solving process. After discussing the two schools of thought and analyzing studies based off of them, this paper explores some companies and popular blogs about brainstorming to see how the schools of thought have influenced the understanding and use of brainstorming today. “It is easier to tone down a wild idea than to think up a new one”
