Observing

  • What went well for your team in the competition? What would you do differently next time? 
  • What was the biggest challenge your team faced aligning the turbines? What was your strategy?
  • What was the biggest challenge your team faced opening the clam and retrieving the pearl? Did your strategy work? Why or why not?
  • What was the most exciting part of another team's match to you? Why? What can you learn from that moment?

Predicting

  • What have you learned about driving the Hero Robot to move and align the turbines that might be useful in future competitions?
  • What is something you might want to change about your robot or driving strategy to make lifting game objects like the pearl easier in future competitions? Is there something you would do again that worked?
  • How does thinking about game strategy affect what tasks you started with and ended with in the 1 minute match? In the future, will you talk more about that game strategy for example ending on a certain tile for points?
  • How will you communicate with your teammate in the future? Have you learned and developed a better way to collaborate?

Collaborating
