| Illumination: | This involves insight into the problem. It is often referred to as the 'Ah-ha experience' as the learner is suddenly able to carry out the task following the confident recognition of the solution. It is as if the light bulb is suddenly switched on. |
| Verification: | This is when you test and evaluate possible solutions. If solutions do not work, you may go back to incubation or preparation stages. |
