        abstract = {Brainstorming is an ideation method that is widely used in the design thinking process. Brainstorming can be defined as a group problem-solving technique where the members contribute ideas spontaneously. In practice, brainstorming is often synonymous with a creative and imaginative idea-generating process.
Brainstorming may be the best-known tool for group idea generation and is widely taught in gifted and talented programs. Many empirical studies have been conducted regarding the effectiveness of brainstorming, and they have provided useful insights into the salient barriers facing groups who use this tool. Although a great deal of this literature focuses on the limitations of brainstorming, the exploratory study included in this article sheds light on approaches that can enhance the value of this tool by examining the impact of the facilitator’s role within group idea generation. Finally, this article outlines recommendations for teaching, learning, and applying brainstorming.
The goal of brainstorming is to generate many ideas quickly, and “out-of-the-box” thinking can be encouraged. The ideas are then discussed, merged, and refined. The group eventually works to achieve a consensus on the final list or best approach to solve the problem.
Brainstorming aims to develop the broadest possible range of creative options, to evaluate these, and to select the best. Outcomes: Brainstorming will offer better solutions to a community issue or proposal because a wider range of options has been canvassed."Brainstorming allows people to think more freely, without fear of judgment. Brainstorming encourages open and ongoing collaboration to solve problems and generate innovative ideas.
Brainstorming allows students to think critically about ideas and solutions, form connections, and share ideas with peers. The activity allows exploring and expanding a student's ability to think critically and laterally.},
