Team Abdus Salam

Innovation:

Team Abdus Salam split up into their three groups to work on their problems of ‘older cars not having blind spot detectors, cars hydroplaning during heavy rains, and car A/Cs breaking down in hot weather.’ The group working on the ‘older cars not having blind spot detectors’ came up with a final solution and revised it to present to the Chief Innovation Facilitator, Mr. Faizan. This group can expect to continue researching their solution and creating a final innovation next week.

The group working on the ‘cars hydroplaning during heavy rains’ problem finished their Structured, Thinking, Analysis, and Reasoning Method (STAR) of questioning and then moved onto brainstorming solutions for the problem. Then, they presented to Mr. Faizan and received critiques on what to fix. They can expect to continue revising and researching their solution next week.

The group working on the ‘car A/Cs shutting down during hot weather’ problem continued to find existing solutions for their problem. They can expect to start brainstorming next week and present tentative solutions to Mr. Faizan.
