Negative Feedback with Straws
- This is a hands-on activity that demonstrates a negative feedback mechanism.
- Get the students to balance the straws on the pinky of their non-writing hand (this should make the activity at least somewhat challenging initially).
- Ask the students the process with which they managed to balanced the straw.
- The idea is that if the straw was falling on the right side, you need to move it to the left, and vice versa.
