Explanation
★The technique described is brainstorming, so that is the answer.
★Brainstorming gathers a small group to pour out many ideas freely on an identified problem.
★Every member is encouraged to suggest solutions and voice ideas without holding back.
★A key rule is that no idea is criticized at the time, though ideas may be modified later.
★This free, non-critical flow is what distinguishes brainstorming from other group methods.
★A task group, inquiry group or role play works differently, so only brainstorming fits these four features.
