Ends Lecture 2/10/09

We had a guest lecture given by Blake Godkin.  He was a engaging speaker and I really liked how he made the class interact with each other.  Getting into groups to practice how to work together and use a step by step process formulate ideas was fun.  I really liked his comment on not judging an idea, or solution right away.  I never realized that I did that and trying not to judge an idea right away was challenging.  He also told us to strive for quantity, and I tend to get to an idea I like then just stop brainstorming.  His idea to keep going and generate and many ideas as possible did help me open my mind to more options that were more unique and novel than anything I had previously come up with.  I will definitely take what he told us and use it in my future projects, especially on our next individual assignment where we enter in the Aggie Innovention contest.
