Without manipulating any of the pieces, they had to sketch on a large Post-it\u00ae something that could be built with the pieces. They had 3 minutes. Without telling them earlier, I then had them pass the pieces and sketch to the person to their right. Each person then had 4 minutes to build the model from the sketch. Next, the model was passed back to the person on the left and we observed reactions.<\/p>\n<p>On the youth level, this was a demonstration about expectations and being part of a multi-step process. Sometimes, not everything will be under your control.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stanford.edu\/group\/sdgc\/cgi-bin\/ycisl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_01461.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-819\" title=\"DSC_0146\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stanford.edu\/group\/sdgc\/cgi-bin\/ycisl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_01461-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycisl.su.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_01461-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ycisl.su.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_01461-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-821\" title=\"DSC_0172\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stanford.edu\/group\/sdgc\/cgi-bin\/ycisl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_0172-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycisl.su.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_0172-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ycisl.su.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/DSC_0172-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the spur of the moment of the current Singapore Polytechnic YCISL workshop, I created an activity to demonstrate (a) visualization of a product from raw material, (b) drawing a sketch of a product that someone else can interpret and understand, and (c) setting expectations when the designer and builder are not the same person.
