A suitable way for teachers to present science content and foster creativity in less academically inclined students is by getting them to engage in design-based science activities and guiding them along the way. This study illustrates how a design-and-make activity was carried out with the aim of getting students to showcase their creativity while trying to understand the concept of stability. Students were given only a few materials and challenged to produce a structure which can support a polystyrene cup filled with water. Results showed that students enjoyed the lesson and were able to showcase their creativity.
