How to judge your answers

Fluency

This is your number of responses

Originality

If you are conducting the experiment on a group of people, you get 1 point for each answer that was given by less than 5% of people and 2 points for every answer that was given by less then 1% of people.

Flexibility

Add up the different categories you cover in your answers. For example ‘use as a kitchen knife’ and ‘cut bread with it’ would be the same category. ‘Use it to whittle a stick into a spear’ would be another category.

Elaboration

This is how much detail your answers have. Just writing ‘paperweight’ would earn you no points here. But answering ‘use as a weight to stop a picnic blanket blowing away in a strong wind’ Would get you 2 points - 1 point for the detail of the picnic blanket and another for the mention of the strong wind.
