I am having trouble understanding what solving a Team Challenge involves.

DI is a program that you have to experience to really understand.  It may help for you to watch some team solution presentations.  Visit the Team Solution Videos page of the Destination Imagination Resource WIKI and watch some performances.

• When you get to the Video page click on a year ("2009" for instance).
• A page will open up titled "Videos of Team's Solutions to 2009 Challenges".
• It is easier to understand a team's solution presentation if you have an idea of the requirements of the challenges.  At the top of the page you will see a link titled "Synopses of 2009 Challanges".  Click on this link and you can read the synopses of the challenges.  Read the synopses before selecting one of the challenges to watch.  You might find it informative to watch several videos of the same challenge to see the variety of ways teams solve the challenges.
