Steam Machine

Attendees will learn and put into practice engineering design concepts to create a Rube Goldberg machine using three chain reaction steps to pop a balloon. The attendees will work in small groups and have to incorporate team work to be successful. In the end, we learn that failures are a chance to learn and improve your design. We will also learn about the importance of a machine having a good design for consistent performance.
