This term our technology challenge was called “Getting the message across”. ย The teams were challenged to get a message across a metre high wall and a ditch using only a few materials. ย Some of the team then had to retrieve the message from 3 metres away. ย It was a challenging task but we had several successful teams. ย The materials we were given to complete the task were paper clips, rubber bands, a film canister, a yoghurt container, newspaper and string. ย The feedback from the teams indicated that cooperation was a common feature, and that working together helped the teams to be successful.
