Mind-map / Lateral thinking

Document class activity

Teacher has taught us about how to think out of the box instead inside the box.
She uses different method and quiz to test us out.
One thing i remember was using four lines to cover 9 dots.
We get to use pencil to draw on a piece of paper to try out different ways to cover the 9dots.
It took 10mins for me to solve it.
I never know it could actually work this way by thinking out of the box.
It was interesting and fun because we get to know how our brain works.
It actually works in a simple ways by not thinking deeply.
Another question is "what is the thing that can put inside the wooden box so it can become lighter? "
At this point of time all i think is air . But it is actually HOLE.
I realise that words also can play with it.
During the lesson, we get to think of the solution in a group and solve it.

BEES AND CHICKEN 

Teacher has told us to do two mind-map about " 30 Why bees will go to the painting than the real rose ? "
and " 30 How to prevent neighbour chickens from damaging our fence? "
It is a group work that need us to do finish.
My group has Yashini and Vicoria. 
We start to discuss about the topics during the class and the place we want to go and do our mind-map.
Then, on the day , we had went to Yashini's house to complete our mind-maps in the morning at 9am! 
We managed to complete our work by one day! 
Firstly, we try to think of 30 reasons why bees would prefer going to the painting. 
We think out of the box and google the information about bees.
After 1 hours, we managed to list down 30 reasons! 
Next, we think of 30 solutions of how to prevent chickens from damaging our fence.
Think out of the box again, and list down one by one.
Aftet that, we start to discuss of how to decorate our mind-maps.
Using colour markers, we drew out most of the reasons and solution in two mind-maps.
FINALLY WE ARE DONE !!!! :DDDDDDD


















 Lateral thinking

In the past, people use hands to sweep the floor. Slowly, people designed vacuum cleaner to help us to sweet floor in a faster way. However, there is a more powerful machine , the auto vacuum cleaner which allows to move freely without any help of using our hands. This auto vacuum cleaner was bought by my father recently ago. It function well and very alert. How this really works? This vacuum cleaner will sweep freely untill it bump into a thing, it will turn the direction in another way in order to sweep other part of the house too.

This vacuum cleaner has designed into a auto vacuum cleaner ! 





On the internet, i have do some research for this auto vacuum cleaner.
There is actually many different types of this auto vacuum cleaner.
Some of them has insert cameras which able to navigate and thoroughly vacuum without bumping any furniture.

Reflection 
For the class activity, we actually need to think out of the box of different solution.
At first i thought that when i think out of box , ideas is to be unique and supposingly in a logical way. However, it is not this way. Think out of box is to think far beyond our imaginary and think far, think in an unexpected way to solve this problems. For the home assignment, i realised that what we designed , we can actually make the product out. It is wrong to think that some of the product we design is hardly make in real life and function well. We need to believe in ourself. 
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
