written reflection 3 3

In the past four weeks, you have completed the process of designing and building an airplane and have just finished competing in the Flying Dons Challenge.

In this reflection, please describe what you’ve learned regarding the difference between the “theory” of designing the airplane with equations versus the “practice” of building and flying the airplane in the competition. Remember that the overarching purpose of this class is to (1) help you learn how to think, solve problems, and view the world around you like an engineer, and (2) help you understand how this engineering worldview is different from the worldview in your primary area of education.
