Into Orbit 2018-2019

Hey Friends,

This year we have tried something new. We gave everyone separate roles in our team, so we could specialize more in programming, presentation and project development, and engineering. This has helped us have smoother meetings and streamline our work. We are loving it so far!

We have been working on the Into Orbit theme. We decided to work on the problem of how to spend free time in space on a long journey. We talked to and emailed a local counselor, Susan Richey, and a Psychology professor, Grant Corser.

They helped us with some of the psychology side of the problem. We decided to make a game board that includes creative games as well as less competitive ones to help improve social activities. One of the judges at the scrimmage photographed above mentioned to use larger cards, so we thought that would be good too.

We are looking forward to trying our programs and presenting our solution at the DSU state qualifier this weekend!
