Part 1: Define the Problem
Today's learning goal: I can define the criteria and constraints of a design problem with sufficient precision to ensure a successful solution.
Design challenge: you must build a rubber band or balloon-powered car out of everyday items (materials supplied in your kit or that you have at home). The car needs to be able to travel for at least three meters. Your goal is to create a car that can reliably travel fast, straight and as far as possible.
We'll work together to understand the challenge before brainstorming. Then, you'll get to see some ideas of how other engineers have solved this problem and draw your blueprint.
