On September 12, 2018 the Presidential Fellows did a team exercise to work on the professional development competencies “learning on the fly” and “dealing with ambiguity.” These competencies are 2 of the 13 skills that make up the Presidential Fellowship professional development framework. In the exercise, the fellows attempted the “Marshmallow Tower Challenge" with a few modifications to increase the difficulty! Fellows were given sticks of spaghetti, tape, string and a marshmallow, and told to construct a tower in an unspecified amount of time. As time advanced, fellows were given a few extra materials to incorporate into their structure. Above all, it was a great exercise to practice our problem solving and build team relationships!
