Before we came to the class this week, each member of our group did the research individually beforehand. Thus we can try out the various designs using simple materials such as paper to compare and to choose the best design among us during the class.
I think this is really a good practice to come to class and be well prepared. As when we are trying out the designs, whatever questions we encountered we are able to ask our teacher for clarification.
After this week’s lesson, we find that our designs still need room for further improvement. For example, we can be more innovative in our design and our aim is to make the glider more stable during flying and capable to fly a great distance. One of the group actually incorporate rubber bands into their design which make their glider able to fly far and that was really an innovative idea for us to learn from.
And we learnt that the best way for us to get a good design is to keep searching and practicing.
