PROBLEM SOLVING - Term 3, Week 3 (2020)
TASK: In small groups build to a structure/object that can do the following...
Hold a cell-phone for at least 20 seconds
Be strong enough that a team member can go underneath it without the structure falling over.
Problems that we needed to overcome ...
Ensuring that the structure was strong enough to stay standing
Incorporating the ideas of everyone
Deciding who had the best skills to crawl under the structure without it falling
Keeping to a time deadline
Ensuring that everyone participated
What did we learn?
We learnt that to get the best result we need to all work together and value the ideas of others. It is hard to get things completed when team members just sit back and do their own thing. If everyone contributes it makes the job easier and we can finish quicker.
