1. Check out this boat! (I know the video is in French - just watch it!)

-What is different about this boat? this boat has wheels on the bottom that allow it to move on land. when the boat is in the water, the wheels turn sideways and pull up under the boat.  -List three pros: the boat can move on land and in water, the wheels attach to the underside, and you don't need a trailer to load and unload it from the water.

-List three cons: if the wheels don't come out then you can't move it on land, the wheels create drag in the water and they add weight to the boat.

-Do you think people will buy this boat? Explain: I don't think this boat will sell any faster than any other boat because it is cool, but doesn't do anything a normal boat can't except move on land and it doesn't move very fast.

-Would you want to work for this company? Explain: no, i don't want to build and invent things for a living.

2. Check this app out:

-What is this app for? this app is for people who like to cross the street and not pay attention.

-List three pro: it helps keep people safe, it has an alarm and it uses the camera on your phone

-List three cons: it only works if you have an advanced phone that can get apps, it might inaccurately alert you if your camera is damaged and it is pointless because you can just pay attention.

-Do you think people will download this app? no, it is pointless

-Would you want to work for this company? Explain: no, i would not like to design apps

3. This is cool:

-Would you try this? Explain: no, it would be scary

-List three pros: you can fly, it is easy to use and it in a new product.

- List three cons: <span style="color: #1c9bf2; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">it is scary, it is dangerous, it does not sound fun

-Would you want to work for this company? Explain: <span style="color: #00ff00; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 20px;">no, I am not interested in creating a new invention like a jet pack, I would just buy one and use it if it became a normal thing,

4. This is pretty darn cool too:

-Would you try this? <span style="color: #ff00ff; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 20px;">Yes i would love to try this product, it would be scary if someone is swinging a shovel at you but at least it wont hurt

-List three pros: This product can help protect you, we could give it to the troops to keep them safe and it is useful.

-List three cons: <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">People might be skepical about buying it because it is so thin, it doesn't look like it can stop a bullet and it would be scarry having to test it

-Would you work for this company? Explain: <span style="color: #00ff00; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">No, this company seems cool, but i wouldn't want to work for them because this is not what i want to do with my life. I don't want to invent things.
