My group was extremely close to making an effective “egg protector” unfortunately we were unable to cover every single side of the egg and a small piece chipped disqualifying us from the competition.
My group was a little unorganized, I think there were too many dominant personalities in my group. If one of us didn’t like the other’s idea it turned into a bigger argument than it probably should have been.
I believe my group started the project off entirely wrong. One person just shouted out an idea and we kind of went from there. Each person should have drawn up their own design and then we should have had a brief discussion comparing, contrasting, and combining ideas.
Time was extremely limited and after some people began arguing against the only mentioned plan we finally took time to stop and decide as a whole what we all thought was best.
We did do a thorough check of the tools we could use and were very thorough with the details of our task. Making sure the shortest girl would drop the egg, trying to think about impact to the egg versus the materials being used.
There was a definite lack of management, no single person leading the group, and that is where I think we failed.
I think the end result was just as we expected. We were very close to passing the drop test but I don’t think any of us were fully confident our design was foolproof. The lack of planning definitely has me prepared for tasks to come.
