Points for Discussion

In this video, students are required to apply their knowledge and understandings of mathematics, science and technology as they were asked to engineer a solution to the problem given to them. While watching this clip, consider the following questions.

• What opportunities can you identify for the development of conceptual understandings in mathematics and science in this task at your level?
• How could teachers ensure that students are able to recognise these?
• Where might you find link to the technologies curriculum? Where is the engineering?
• Are there opportunities for assessment in this type of task?
