Brain Boxes
Brain Boxes consists of a central word or concept. Around the central word you draw up to 5 main ideas
that relate to that word. You then take each of those child words and again draw up to more ideas that
relate to each of those words.
In this way, a large number of related ideas can quickly be produced with virtually no mental effort and
makes a very powerful tool for creative writing.
The question maker allows you to create your own set of associations .
To log in, go to the web site: http://www.questionmanager.co.uk
Select Manage Brain Boxes associations
Once logged in you will see the main menu screen which may already have sets of brain box
associations uploaded.
To get yourself started you can download our template which you can populate to create your own
associations. It may be helpful to View currently available content to see how these are compiled for
this challenge.
To upload your own set of associations select upload a new set of associations .
A replacement image for the brain can also be uploaded. Save the replacement image as a JPEG and
no bigger than 153x105 pixels, before it is uploaded.
To put a Brain Boxes association set on to your KIT, plug in the USB storage device to your PC, then
click on the "Download" link next to the one you wish to use, and save the resultant file to the USB
storage device in the "questions" folder. Once you have done this, plug the USB storage device back
into the KIT.
