    This document introduces the SCAMPER technique for creative thinking and problem solving. SCAMPER stands for Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to other uses, Eliminate, and Rearrange. For each letter, examples are provided of how it could be applied to inventing a new type of pen. Substitute could involve swapping out the ink or nib. Combine could mean adding a writing and cutting function. Adapt could be using the pen top as a container. Modify may change the pen's size, shape, or flexibility. The document prompts the reader to apply SCAMPER themselves to brainstorming new uses and modifications for a laptop.
