Solution

The least helpful idea to avoid groupthink in this scenario would be "A. Bonding by going to see a movie together before starting the project". While bonding can help improve group dynamics, it does not directly contribute to avoiding groupthink. The other options involve strategies that encourage independent thinking, critical analysis, and external perspectives, all of which can help prevent groupthink.
