Smoke Test
Purposedifferent
When a problem gets covered up too quickly with answers, Question Burst puts the better question at the center. The format opens the thinking space before the group commits to an interpretation.The method makes visible why two seemingly incompatible demands arise and which assumption must be tested to resolve the conflict.When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all.
