School has been pretty interesting today, especially during MOB.
Well, today is the starting of our MOB PBL assignment. PBL refers to Problem Based Learning. It is a group work where each group is given the same problem or assignment to ponder and do. After the assignment, we have to reflect on what we did and apply our knowledge in management and organization behavior.
Our job today was to a Straw Nest. This nest will hold and our egg which will be dropped from the 6th floor.
The materials given to us were 1 balloon, 3 rubber bands, 10 straws, an egg, 5 pieces of 1 foot long masking tape and 2 paper napkins.
Like any other ordinary people will do, we started to wrap the egg with the straws we had. Next, we wrap the egg and the straws with the paper napkins. Follow by wrapping the item with the leftover straws. The blown up the balloon was attached to the egg using rubber bands.
We adopted the concept of a hot air balloon and created our Straw Nest. The other 2 groups in my class also used that concept and created their Straw Nest. Only for 1 group had their egg stuffed into the blown up balloon. It is really amazing how they did it, but they did it anyway.
So, up up we go the the 6th floor and down down our eggs fell. The result, my egg broke. the egg in the balloon broke as well. The other 2 survived through. Well, we had fun.... Haha!
It's getting late now. I've to do compiling for my project. See ya!
