HFA Freshman Build Computers Recently 25 HFA freshmen had the opportunity to build computers in a fun and engaging team building exercise. The program was sponsored by Arrow, a Fortune 150 technology solutions company, in partnership with The Henry Ford. Guided by Arrow representatives, five teams of five freshmen each assembled a computer “from scratch” in a friendly competition, structured as a series of team building challenges. At each stage, teams had to successfully complete a challenge activity in order to receive the next computer component, which team members then learned how to install. By the end of the 1½ hour session, five complete desktop computers had been assembled, and the freshmen had experienced a unique, team-based learning opportunity.
