Put your creativity to the Challenge: Take Part in Our 10min Experiment!
When faced with novel mental challenges, how do we go about coming up with a solution?
We will present you with some simple building materials and a fun task to complete. We are interested in knowing what strategies people use to approach tasks such as these. As well as letting you complete the task, we’ll also show you solutions that other people have come up with.
