The Quinn contribution process

Notice first. Build later.

The programme slows ideas down long enough to understand the problem, credit the work and test safely.

01

Notice

Describe something ordinary that does not work as well as it should.

02

Investigate

Find who it affects, what already exists and what evidence is missing.

03

Contribute

Record each person's observation, research, sketch, test or improvement.

04

Review

A teacher checks safety, privacy, evidence and whether the idea is ready to progress.

05

Prototype

Selected ideas become small, supervised experiments. A failed test is still a result.

An idea has a visible state

Progress is not guaranteed. Ideas may be returned for more information, parked or archived. Status labels describe the work; they do not score the contributor.
