In school, I was assigned to make a Rube Goldberg machine. If you don’t know what a Rube Goldberg machine is, it is a complex chain reaction that mainly preforms a simple task. We got the ability to work in groups. We started with trail and error but, we realized that was not working out. To fix this we decided to think of step and then create it. This was a more efficient way of working. At this point, the problem we faced was not having enough materials. We needed more tables, more dominoes, more ramps, etc. With the materials we already had, we tried to create as many steps as we could. But it was not much. After we realized this lack of materials, one of my group mates brought a table and more tracks. Another one brought 200 dominoes! This allowed us to create more steps and create then more efficiently.
