Cluster 2: Engineering Design & Control of Kinetic Sculptures

Week 2

In Class: Pendulum Clocks 

For the first couple of days of week 2, students finished up their pendulum clocks and did some analysis. They predicted their oscillation times with different methods and made a webpage to showcase their work. 

In Class: Group Assignments 

This week, students got to form teams within their clusters to work together on assignments. Students took diversity into consideration and worked together with people they didn't talk to as much before. 

Cluster 2 worked on small challenges, such as the balloon drop challenge where they had to keep a water balloon safe from a two-story-building drop, and shared what they learned with their classmates through short five-minute presentations.
