Instructions
Provide each Scout or small group with design dice, instruct Scouts to roll the dice and use the combinations of issues, budgets, outcomes, etc. that come up to generate ideas for solving social issues.
Scouts can write down or draw their ideas in their paper or notebooks. Encourage Scouts to think outside the box and explore different possibilities with the random combinations from the design dice.
Debrief
After a designated time, have Scouts share their ideas with the group and discuss the potential strengths and weaknesses of their ideas.
Facilitate a discussion on the process of generating ideas using design dice and how it can inspire creative problem - solving.
