Engineering
We started our engineering segment by designing an amusement park ride. We were given specific materials and height requirements to follow and then the rest was up to us.
First we drew our design, we were given a limited amount of time and reminded of the criteria we had to follow.
Then we met with our partner to combine our designs and build one we both thought would work best.
Afterwords, we were finally able to begin building. We were again limited on time and reminded of criteria.
Then we finally got to test our inventions...

After the first round of trials we were given time to re-think our designs and re-build. During the first trial mine and my partner's design lost both ping pong balls. On our second trial we only lost one.
