Our group failed at building an effective egg protector because of our design. We came up with several different blue prints of how we can create an egg protector than will prevent the egg from cracking. Unfortunately, the design needed to be simple and effective but we focused too much in protecting the egg with lots of straws all around it.
The we carried out all the steps required in the "Planning Process." We defined our goal and objective, we determined resources and current status, developed two alternative strategies, made a tactical plan, and implemented the plan and evaluateed results. I believe that possibly we were weak in carrying out the step for implementing the plan and evaluating results because time was running out and we needed to get the egg covered with the straws asap though we did not bypass any of the steps.
I personally believe that we all worked together and shared our ideas to see what would work out best and my team's overall performance was positive and active in trying to complete our goal. If we had the material during the planning phase, then I believe we would have achieved a better design that would most likely have given us a higher chance in coming up with a more effective plan in protecting our egg from cracking.

In order to finish the egg protector for limited time, it required careful planning. Because it is limited time, we all skipped the the last step in planning process. If we have plenty of time, we all would work better.
ReplyDeleteI too believe that have we had the materials given to us while trying to come up with a plan, it would hae been better. The straws were pretty weak and the tape didn't stick well, but we didn't know that until later on when it was too late. Time was definitely an issue and it was hard to come up with a successful plan with not enough time, but I think all the groups were creative nonetheless!
ReplyDeleteI also believe that if there was more time, and better equipment given, the project would've came out better. There was a limited amount of time to plan out everything. I feel that if the timing was longer you would've had a chance to try out the blue prints, and correct your mistakes. I also agree some of the equipment was unusable, but more the less I believe that everyone did what they could, with the limited amount of timing.
