• What was your invention intended to do? Consider a variety of reasons.Example: washing machine - a time saving device
• As each group presents back to the class, think of a question you might ask them to do with the intentions of their invention.
• Also, consider what the inadvertent outcomes (negative consequences of the invention might be)
