Unplanned ideas are often best illustrated by 'Eureka!", or 'Aha!', moments, like Einstein's clock tower moment that sparked his special relativity, or Archimedes’ bathtub water-displacement idea.
some of conditions where we can find it is 'Eureka Moment'
- Is when everything from confusion finds his way.... and you feel better.
- when you see something unexpected that completely changes what you thought was possible.
- happens when you've done your homework and you know enough to recognize something astounding and understand immediately what it means.
- To see the striking similarities from other research areas and understand how much of it is pertinent to your research.
- when you
find out good principles to turn video games into good educational tools.
Example of eureka moment from the story of Archimedes and the Golden Crown:
It all started when King Hiero II was skeptical about his new laurel leaf-shaped crown. The king wanted to know whether the crown was solid gold, or if some other metal had been added.
It was up to Archimedes to figure this out. Only there was one catch: he couldn't destroy the crown.
After what probably felt like days with the Jeopardy theme song playing in his head ad nauseum, Archimedes drew a bath and suddenly it all became clear. He could determine the density of the crown by noting how much water it displaced. If any other material had been added to the crown, it would be less dense than if it were made entirely of gold.
Archimedes was so excited that he ran naked through the streets (remember, he was about to take a bath) shouting, "Eureka! I have found it!"
He may not have been the first person in history to get a sudden flash of inspiration, but Archimedes is the man who made eureka famous.
