Research & Decide
Research & Decide
Students will investigate fair scoring approaches, turn Olympic event ideas into measurable design criteria and constraints, compare multiple event concepts with evidence, and commit to one team event plan with draft rules, roles, and a justified decision before prototyping.
Days 2 - 3
Prototype & Improve
Prototype & Improve
Students will build and test their chosen School Olympics event, use scorecards and repeated trials to collect accurate data, revise weak rules or materials based on evidence and peer critique, and prepare clear tables, graphs, and trade-off notes that show why their improved design is fair and ready for the showcase.
