Today we watched a video on problem solving - Tom Wujec: Got a wicked problem? First, tell me how you make toast to start off the day.
From this, we tried to solve our own simple problems using collaboration, diagrams and stickies.
Here is one done by the Sports Enthusiasts on How to make the best baked beans.

Although, it gave more of a historical (accuracy questionable) account and didn't really answer how this was the way to make the BEST baked beans, it still seems like a very interesting way to present their work.
There were some very interesting discussions going on within other groups as well during this task, here is another video (edited by our lovely G.P) that highlights some of the brainstorming in action!
