A: Explaining phenomena or designing solutions
The EE1 lesson, encourages students to design their own solutions, but first to explore the phenomena that encourage things/crafts to float. The combination of explaining phenomena and designing solutions that contain and utilize the concepts explored assist in a developing a deeper understanding of the ideas.
E: Student ideas
By allowing the students to create the 'pennyship' to solve the problem of the floating sensor the lesson gradually opens up the possibilities for their own innovation. The limitations arise due to the students being guided through parachute lessons in the weeks before the visit may restrict the students to only trying parachutes for their 'pennyships'.
