It's like Apollo 13 without
astronauts. The PuffMobile challenge requires the teams to use
very limited supplies to build a vehicle that can travel across
great distances...only powered by the air from their own lungs!
The amazing results demonstrated
that the students had developed several critical skills:
1.
Problem Solving
The ability to use resources to solve a complex problem.
2. Creativity
Assembling a mixed bag of supplies to build a working machine
requires lots of great ideas and plenty of creativity.
3. Energy
This was no easy task and required a focused amount of energy
and desire to make things work.
4. Flexibility
This challenge generated lots of ideas and the teams
demonstrated a willingness to try them all...working and
re-working things until they got results.
Apply these skills and you'll be able to solve problems and work
well with others. |
