In-Class Exercise1

 

Explanation:

The task of the In-class Exercise 1 is to make the TALLEST “TOWER”. The materials that we had to use were limited, so we had to design a good structure that could be tall as well. 

 Our Group was first for the first Round. we achieved a ~67 "tower"high.

 (Tallest "tower" for the second round)

The above images are some examples of other groups.

Learning objectives: Very fun task and enjoyable, however, it had some good purposes. We learned how to build a tall structure from very thin and light materials. We had troubles with the base, because it is the most important part of the “tower”. Without a strong base, you can’t build a high “tower”, that’s why I tried to make a good base that could hole more sticks up to make it taller and taller.  As we had different groups and each group had different ideas of how to build the structure, so we learned from each other different concepts. I really enjoyed this entertaining and teaching task.
