When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and
SYNTHESIZE new things.
- Steve Jobs, 1995

making observations,
collecting data,
making measurements,
and/or changing variables?
Can the question be
narrowed and focused enough to look at a SINGLE variable?

more INVOLVED in them, more ENGAGED in wanting to know,
to have projects that they can get EXCITED about and work on
