Solve a World Problem

First our class brainstormed different problems that affect the general population and my group picked the problem of hot pillows. After learning to annotate we went through various articles that pertained to our problem finding the best 3 articles of our choosing. We then brainstormed solutions that may solve the problem using the principles of engineering design cycle.

Now it was time to run an experiment to test our solutions see if they worked. After running through some experiments we decided on our final solution a pillow that had about 1-2 inches of memory foam below it. This seemed to work best because the pillow was around 6-7 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than a standard stuffed pillow and still stayed comfortable. We finished off by creating a slide presentation that displayed our data to let the class know what the solution that we came up with was.
