question 14 of 15
when type of brainstorming involves taking a sheet of paper, dividing it into columns, and then listing four or five items in each column?
○ personal inventory
○ mind mapping
○ freewriting
○ clustering

Explanation:

The question is about identifying the brainstorming technique that involves dividing a paper into columns and listing items. Clustering (also called clustering or cubing in some contexts, but here the option is "clustering") is a brainstorming method where you organize ideas by grouping related concepts, often by dividing a page into sections (columns or areas) and listing ideas under relevant groupings. Personal inventory is self - reflection on personal experiences, mind mapping is a visual web of ideas, and freewriting is continuous writing without structure. So the correct technique here is clustering.

Answer:

clustering
