SciFest 2014


"If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done."




We have been thinking a lot and time is passing by quickly. 
Then one day, without thinking much we decided to build our Swan for SciFest. A research goal was to hear the understanding of newer generations about climate change. To link the research topic with the vision of F4E we requested our workshop participants to answer a questionnaire after they had built a swam, which had a LED as crown in its head. 



 


We should confess that our workshop was very successful ;) we even ran out of material!



PRO
- It was fun to do the origami
- Happiness was expressed when the swam had its LED, e.g. "it is alive"

CONS
- We ran out of batteries! :(

COULD IMPROVE:
We could not use the conductive ink, there was not time. So we "handicraft" how to connect the battery with the LEDs even creating a switch.  Additionally, we explained briefly how to connect the + & - of the battery and the LEDs, however we could improve this explanation by creating proper learning material. Easy to use and understand but clear!
