Debriefing and Reflection questions

These reflection questions help students recognise, name, and discuss the development of creativity, curiosity, and flexible thinking during the activity.

On curiosity and openness:

  • What made you curious while touching the object without seeing it?
  • Which part of the object surprised you the most? Why?
  • How did your curiosity influence the guesses you made?

On creativity and flexible thinking:

  • Which alternative use did you invent that you found the most imaginative?
  • How did you come up with new functions for the object?
  • How did hearing others’ ideas help you think more creatively?

On the process of discovery:

  • What helped you stay open to different possibilities?
  • Was there a moment when you changed your mind? What triggered it?
  • How did touch-only exploration change the way you imagine objects?

On applying the skill to other situations:

  • When could creativity and curiosity help you in other subjects (science, reading, problem-solving)?
  • How can flexible thinking help you at school or in everyday life?
