The egg cover


Preventing the egg from breaking.



Among our weekly ppd activities, this activity is very exciting as well as thoughtful. As always we were provided by some recourse by the conductor.
1. 5 papers
2. The egg
3. A role of gumtape
4. Small piece of paper to decorate
At the end of the task the egg should be able to survive when it drop from 10ft height.



First of all we thought about the given task and we divided the task in to 2 major paths. We wanted to protect the egg from touching the ground when its falling time and we wanted to make the egg shell stronger. Therefore we came across the idea of an egg holding bag and an egg shell shield. We divided our 4 group member into 2 groups and we did as we decided.


We made the bag with papers and we added an across with paper to absorb the pressure when the egg coming to the bag. And we wrapped the whole egg by using gumtape in order to make the shell stronger. To make our product creatively we made that as a cute bunny.


During the egg dropping period, we realized that something has gone wrong. We were not allowed to catch the egg when it drops. Therefore we had to put our bunny into our paper bag and drop. Unfortunately there was a miscommunication and a misunderstandment about the task.


Although we had a plan, though we had a strategy, though we thought innovatively, because of our own issues our bunny could not survive. After we realized that something has gone wrong, we did not loose our hope that we keep our bunny. Though we had to face an unacceptable situation we worked as a one until the very end.

Paper Tower Game According to my point of view, this paper tower game which we have done in our ppd session is not just a game. It can be considered as a group activity which can improve our soft skills which cannot be developed only by doing the academic stuff. Leadership skills, speaking ability, creative thinking and time management are some of those soft skills. What is the paper tower game? First of all we were divided into three groups by counting. In this activity we were provided 12 papers, a gum tape and a pair of scissors. Apart from that, the tower that we built could be stand at the given place. Then we have to build the tallest tower within the given 45 minutes. How did we do that? First of all we had a small discussion about the way we build the tower. As we all concerned about the height of the tower we started building it from the body by rolling those given papers. Then we divided our group members into sub groups. Then some of them made the b...

What you learn from PPD PPD which is known as Personal Progress Development can be considered as a guild line of our lives. Not only that but also it is energy and time saving method. From these PPD sessions that we had in our university, we were able to make new unforgettable memories as well as good lessons. According to my view, our PPD session is mainly focused on the point which is having a strategy before starting a task. We have to pay more attention to some points like the dead line, way of doing the task (analysing the task), things that make the task easier, way of getting maximum use from the given resources. First of all we have to spend some time on analyzing the given task or the activity. Then we have to put our effort according to the impotency of each work. Although it was a success or a failure, we have to keep going on through the working process. As well as we should be able to maintain our mentality to not to lose the faith, which we keep...
