egg+drop

// a. Identify the Problem: // 1. Identify the Problem:how to save a egg from 15ft drop using only straws. // b. Develop the Design Brief: // 2. Research, and find designs that would work for your egg drop. 3. How do you know that these resources are trustworthy?because a lot people think that his design is trustworthy. 4. Explain why not all Internet sources are trustworthy?because they use different kind of supplies.And sometimes they lie about their egg design. // c. Formulate a Design Specification // 5. List all the requirements you must meet to create the egg drop:
 * STEP 1: INVESTIGATE **


 * Using the Design Cycle, create an "egg pod" that will save an egg from a 15 foot drop.
 * You will have 60 straws to complete this assignment.
 * You will have a few (5 - 7) glue sticks to complete this project.
 * You will not receive your egg until we are outside the day we drop the eggs.
 * You will not have any glue the day we drop the eggs.
 * Create a new page on your wiki and name it "Egg Drop" - your entire Design Folder should be posted on this page. Copy and paste the Design Folder onto your new page.

6. Why is it important to test your egg drop before the final “drop”? to know which angle its going to turn when you drop it and if its going to brake. 7. How does making an egg drop apply to a real world situation?You can sometimes save a life. And we can improve the design to make it better. // a. Design a Product or Solution: // 8. Create three completely different designs using the Brainstorming Chart. [|IB Brainstorming Chart .pdf] // b. Plan a Product or Solution: // 9. Which design do you think will work best?the round design (3rd) 10. Why did you choose this design? We found it more secure, bounce and it is balanced 11. On the back of your brainstorming paper, draw your final draft. 12. Plan how you will get the entire project finished by May 11. (I will help you with this step!) // a. Use Appropriate Techniques and Equipment: // 13. List three safety tips you need to follow to while creating your egg drop: don't put your finger too close to the glue gun, don't put the glue gun on the table and let the glue dry before you touch it. 14. Were you nice, respective, responsible, and did you have a good attitude? Explain: yes because we follow the directions, we respect each other, and we work together. // b. Follow the Plan: // 15. Did you follow your plan?yes but change some to make it better. 16. Did you create steps in your plan that were easy to follow?yes 17. Did you follow my requirements?yes // c. Create the Product/Solution: // 18. What areas of your plan needed troubleshooting? the size of our egg drop. // a. Evaluate the Product/Solution: // 19. Was your design successful?yes 20. How could you improve your solution?make our design bigger. 21. What part of your design would you use again?the shape of the design. // b. Evaluate the Use of the Design Cycle: // 25. Grade yourself, using the IB Rubric, for each stage of the Design Cycle. Get the rubric from me. 26. How can the Design Cycle be used in other subject areas? help improve the product. 27. How can the Design Cycle be used in real world situations? building stuff. changing something. making it more durable. 28. Were you nice?yes 29. Were you respectful to everyone in the class and all the equipment in the classroom?yes 30. Were you a whiny-baby?no 31. On a scale of 1 - 6, give yourself a grade for your attitude:6
