Math+Trail+Feedback

- took us on a mini tour of the science centre, allowing us to get more familiar -I really liked the poem in the escalder question, making more of the question into poems would be really fun -the hints and walking instructions are very useful -Got to explore many areas (not just stuck in one area) -No two questions were similar -The car game question was really fun (maybe incorporate more games into it) -Showed us that the "science" centre in not just about science but also about math -Incorporated many different areas and a variety of subjects in the questions... -Allowed us to see things in a different way (ie. see math within everyday scenarios) -Allowed us to apply our math skills to things we see in the science centre - It was an interactive, hands-on activity, actually having to go read, measure, and calculate items, which is a lot more interesting than normal class work

- question 5 was unclear as to which shapes and lines should be erased - Try including questions that involve more creative thinking. - Try including questions that are more dynamic, and require teamwork - rather then one person with the calculator doing it. - More starting points would be better so there are not large clusters of people, and the activities could be easily changed for younger age groups, like just estimating the distance of the elevators, or finding out how much older the oldest rock is then the youngest rock in the timeline -Some of the questions were not clear (the first one didn't indicate which tick on ruler you were looking at, the big or little one) -It was very long and I lost interest after a while -Some of the questions were too in depth -The instructions for the outdoor activity were not very clear -Maybe make the questions more challenging or to suit the age group of whoever is participating -More puzzles? -Maybe try and include more of the curriculum.. -Get rid of activity 5 altogether. It's too confusing. -It would have been better if there was more an option to choose your questions for example there could be like 12 different questions and you and your group had to choose 4 different questions and your get points for the difficulty of questions awnsered and the team with the most points win. -the question in the marketplace should maybe have some values given, so that people aren't required to climb on ledges to reach the top windows -Try to incorporate different types and styles of math, more so than just measuring, and simple calculations. -Making it more like a scavenger hunt so that one clue leads to another - Re-wording a few of the question would be very helpful, quite often I found myself questioning the instructions or what the purpose of the question was
