Week 6!!

 This time for week 6, the teacher moved from mind mapping to cracking our brain to solve different kind of question be it only one answer or many answer

-Case Study 1-
We started of the class with riddles and puzzles. Since it is the second class and started of in 3 o clock, its a good way to refresh us.
I remembered one of the riddle about a wooden box, it sounded like this "What can be put inside a closed wooden box to make it lighter??"
.
.
.
and the answer is "HOLES"...
Honestly i couldn't figure out the answer to the riddles, it took time for someone to answer in the class, one of my classmate answer "helium", and some other answer " torch or lamp". Its really fun.

From riddles my teacher jumped it off to puzzle, one of the puzzle he told us to solve is this one, "how to connect all the 9 dots using only 4 straight line?"

I never got this puzzle before so definitely i cracked my brain to solve it but still at last i couldn't solve it until i saw my friend's answer...


It make me realize i'm not really good in solving up riddles and puzzle though its a bit sad but its fun and interesting actually.

 

 
Moving on to -Case Study 2-

In this case study we are divided to a group of three, my group is the same as the last assignment about mindmapping (see my previous post ^.^).

This time the case study is about a story
In this story, Szema Kong (who was later a famous scholar and Prime Minister of the Sung Dynasty) saved a boy who was drowning in an urn (probably one made of clay) by throwing stone to break the urn to save the boy.

This was the original story
but for our task.....
Is to figured out creative way of saving a boy drowning in an urn, but this time the urn is made of metal ---->

Since the Subject "Creative Thinking", though the solution doesn't make sense in real life, we're free to express our solution in the most impossible ways.

This is what the three of us did >.<

We made a sketch about this so first the boy was playing an plane toy then the toy falls into the metal urn and the boy try to get it out but instead he falls down inside the urn, then Szema Kong (the main character) who is seeing the boy fall inside the urn eat spinach and become strong hit the urn, broke the urn and make the water spill and at last saved the boy from drowning.


And in the end we discuss it altogether about our ways, other groups answer is also interesting some answer by throwing pebbles into the jar , etc.
