Design and Technology – non-stop in 60 seconds

Students were given the challenge of creating an obstacle course that went for 60 seconds. It was inspired by OK Go. Check them out on YouTube!

Students evaluated their learning at the conclusion:

“It looked really cool but didn’t work as well as we wanted it to.”
“It was frustrating but it was fun because we got to be creative.”
“Parts of our design stayed the same but parts changed.”
“Sometimes other people knocked our dominos over.”
“Even though we had problems we didn’t give up. We kept on trying.”
“It was fun because we got to aim the marbles at the dominos.”
“It was frustrating when we had to keep trying.”
“When it didn’t work we had to change our ideas.”
“We had to be risk takers because it didn’t always go to plan and we had to try something different.”
