Week 2 Tuesday

Challenge: extra credit for extra parts?

Instructions: Last week you tried to understand a tape recorder by considering the components and subcomponents that operate inside it. Today you will demonstrate your understanding of the machine by re-assembling it from those components..."what I cannot create, I do not understand." and all that...Take a careful look at your parts list and your notes from last time. The team that can reassemble their tape recorder from the greatest number of parts will win this challenge. You have 1/2 an hour to work on this task. At the end of the 1/2 hour we will spend some time tallying the successes of the groups and discussing the exercise in terms of scientific vs engineering efforts. Before you leave today: Spend 5 minutes to complete your response journal entry. In your response, you should note:

    • what the activity was
    • why you think it might have been included in this class
    • if the activity helped you think about:
      • how can biology be made easier to engineer?
      • what are the consequences of success?
      • what clever ways has nature found to solve physical challenges?
      • in what ways does nature innovate?
    • if the activity has given you any new tools/considerations that could be useful for your project.

Upload these responses to homework dropbox using the "lecture response journal" tab found here
