Votes in favor of/against selecting this as the best translation of the term asked
No  Hovengen: No. “Idèmyldring” is the best word. “Dugnad” gives the term a limited scope, since “dugnad” is always free of charge, and never applies to professional activity. In most normal applications Norwegians still use the word “brainstorm”.

hjernestorm


Definition from Helsetilsynet:
Kjært barn har mange navn. Denne metoden kalles ofte «brainstorm» i Norge. Andre navn er hjernestorm eller idedugnad. Vi velger hjernestorm fordi det inkluderer litt «galskap». Hjernestorm brukes når en skal tenke nytt eller komme på alle tenkelige dimensjoner på en problemstilling. Hjernestorm brukes for å få opp mange ideer på kort tid.

Regler for hjernestorm:beskriv temaet kort slik at deltakerne kan bli enige om dette. Kritiser aldri ideer, og skriv opp alle ideene på tavle eller flipover, synlig og lesbart for alle. Noter ned ideene slik de er formulert; ikke omskriv dem eller fortolk dem, og la hjernestormen gå raskt; 5-15 minutter er nok.

Example sentence(s):
  • Men likestillingsutvalget åpner for kreativ hjernestorm og mulighet til å gripe tak i problemer og sette i gang forbedringstiltak på selvstendig initiativ - Tidsskrift for Den norske legeforening
