Be sure that you are addressing all of the information under the brainstorm process under Summary. • Make a list of all the things you like about your current locker. Ask several friends for their opinions.
• Make a list of all the things you dislike about your current locker. Ask several friends for their opinions.
• Think about your locker not just as a metal box, but as another type of container. What other types of containers do you use each day to store stuff? (Examples: containers for food, clothing, household items)
• Many animals, insects, and plants use containers to store things (Example: bees use honeycombs). Check out some of the images in the Inspiration Gallery for other ideas of strorage units.
• Keep in mind that your newly-designed locker will be one of many along the hallway. How will these individual units all fit together? How will several students use their lockers at the same time without bumping into each other?

Be specific about your brainstorming ideas by providing examples of the results of the brainstorming.

Students complain of old lockers having trouble with space, and trouble with the locks. So we have designed a new locker for school use. We brainstormed several designs, made a prototype and researched how to make a better school locker.
