Describe what you did in each stage of the design process.
First, the string was hanged one wall from the other, we looked at the string to see what we could come up with and then we noticed that the paper clip could bend. Than we tapped the gummy bear to the paper clip and we hanged it on the string to test it if it could slide to across the room.
Describe your final result.
The gummy bear put weight on the paper clip and with a small push it made it easier for the paper clip to slide across.
Why do you think brainstorming is helpful when solving a problem?
Brainstorming is helpful because It helps when ideas are said, it builds up one another to solve the problem
How did testing improve your design?
I believe testing improved our design because it helped us improved it to make it better.
With respect to designing the solution of a problem, what are some important characteristics of a successful team? I believe some important characteristics are communication, team work and no one left behind and collaboration on ideas.
