Impromptu

Brainstorming – once you are given a topic you can ask yourself what do I know, what experiences have I had, and/or what have I observed others in experiencing this topic?

Reverse Brainstorming – what do you not know about the topic, what experiences have you not had, or what have you never observed before concerning others.

Parallel Thinking – what does the topic remind you of, then what, then what… until you find something you can speak about.
