  14. Small-Group Brainstorm Here are the guidelines for your small-group brainstorm. Start with the question: Which innovations have most improved the lives of people in my generation? Consider all aspects of society: health, entertainment, education, communication, etc. Think about news stories you’ve heard or read in the past year: Is there an innovation that doesn’t affect you directly but is still important to society? Write down all the innovations that your group comes up with.

  16. The Innovation Process Recall the steps in the innovation process. The stages in red represent those of the process that are iterative and may need to be repeated several times before building. Identify Research Brainstorm Design Plan Name Build Evaluate Test Prototype

  18. Innovation of Our Generation Choose an innovation that you think should be the “Innovation of our Generation.” Use these questions to guide your research and develop an argument supported by evidence. Who designed or invented your innovation? When was it designed? What did people do before it was designed? What problem does it solve? How does it make life better for kids your age? How many kids use it? How do they use it? How does it work? What is the science behind it? What challenges did the innovators face? How did the overcome them? How has the innovation changed people’s lives?
