That's part of it. I've used the teddy bear technique a lot, and it forces me to really think through the process I'm using. I find that if I can't explain my problem to the bear, I don't understand it myself. Forming a detailed explanation has given me an "aha!" moment more times than I can remember. It often goes something like "I do this, then this, get a return value, send it to this object, and get a void return... hang on... That's it! I have the function returning a value, but I declared the function as void. D'oh!" If you can explain the problem in detail, you can probably fix it.
