Additional Pictures of "Personal Paper Kayak" Competition

This is yet another "Group Project" in Transporation Systems.  It is only one of many activities in this class.  The problem statement is given by the instructor, with ideas of where resources may be found.  It requires the students to elect key positions such as leader; apply group process; design and plan; requisition; problem solve; test and retest; meet timelines; engineer; and conduct self and peer evaluations.  There are few activities in college quite like it!
