In this module, we'll be learning how engineers use data to optimize a design, and we'll be learning about aspects of flight / aeronautical systems. 1) We will start by following the directions on the PDF to make a highly specified hoop glider. 2) Once that glider is flown and tested, record its 2 best flights (of 5) into the 1B Engineering Hoop Design Analysis Google Sheet. 3) Watch PBS Learning Media link (below) to learn about the Challenge of Flight, as well as the other TWO videos. 4) Plan what modification in the design you might want to do... (substituting printer paper with construction paper or graph paper, OR by substituting the original straw with a longer straw).   NOTE: Your assessment will be based on the original specified glider design, your modified design, and your reflections on these designs
