Levels of Engagement Sounds Machine

While doing my observation of the Sounds Machine, I added a few practices of engagement and split my engagement levels into four levels. The practices of engagement added are observable and include changing parts, extended stay or watching, and engaging other guests. With the sound machine there are only two points of manipulation, each with only one result. Due to the limited interaction manipualtipulation is at a minimum, restricting problem solving and testing of solutions. The engagement levels I specified gradually increasing levels from passive observation to complete engagement.
For the first level of engagement, observing, all levels of engagement involved observation. Most of the practices include observation as manipulation is at a minimum. The questions asked may include the rate or pattern of the balls and which balls make which sounds. I put asking questions in the two highest engagement levels as it is crucial finding to connections and interpreting data both indicators of high engagement.
