How to use the Crazy 8s Brainstorming template
Step 1: Assign boxes
Each participant gets 8 boxes. We’ve created 4 sets of boxes for you to help you get started quickly. Copy and paste more as needed.
Using the 8 boxes in the template, tell your team they have 8 minutes to sketch, draw, and ideate using the pen tool (or any other tool!) provided by Miro. This is not about perfection, but about output. Sketches can be as rough as you need!
Step 2: Set the timer
Set the timer to 8 minutes and be sure to assign a time-keeper.
Step 3: Get drawing!
Once the timer starts, participants have 8 minutes to draw 8 sketches of ideas. Don’t worry about your artistic abilities or having perfect sketches — this is about rapid ideation through creativity.
Step 4: Discuss and vote
Each participant should present their top 3 ideas to the group. From there, vote on your favorite ideas as a group and discuss next steps to turn them into a reality.
