Angling for Access:

Your group must build a prototype of your selected ramp design. Take a photograph of your model and upload it onto this page for review by other groups.

You must include a clarification paper that explains your hypothesis and defends the reasoning behind your design decision.

Individually respond to the design of every group on the discussion tab, commenting on the pros and cons of each.

After testing your model in science class using the PASSPORT Force Sensors, post your data by imputting the data table from your lab report including the ideal mechanical advantage and actual mechanical advantage.

Prototype 1 Prototype 2 Prototype 3 Prototype 4 Prototype 5 Prototype 6

Examine the results of the testing of each design and form a conclusion as to the best choice for our playscape considering such factors as population to be served, efficiency, functionality, cost, practicality related to space, and construction considerations. Post your conclusions on the Conclusion page.
