Question

Task #1:
Qualitative: Our hand was barely able to hold the tennis ball as it either only held the ball for a small duration or the ball just rolled off the table due to being unable to pick it up. We had no successful throws.
Attempting to hold this object caused several pieces to fall off our hand such as straws and tape coming undone.
Quantitative: Across our 5 trials, the average duration we were able to hold the tennis ball before it fell was about 1 second. Our success rate for throwing in the bucket was 0% because we couldn't throw at all.
Task #2:
Qualitative: We were able to successfully hold and transfer the cup to the table on all of our trials. There was some difficulty in attempting to initially grab the cup and some tape and straws came undone.
Quantitative: Across our 5 trials, we had a 100% success rate in transferring the cup. The average time it took to complete the task across the trials was about 18 seconds.
Task #3:
Qualitative: We were barely able to lift the soda can as it was too heavy for our prosthetic and the can kept slipping. Thus we were never able to pour any liquid into the cup. During this task, several pieces like tape, string, and straw came undone from the heavy strain created from gripping the can.
Quantitative: Across our 5 trials, we had a 0% success rate with pouring any of the liquid out of the can.
The average height across our trials, that we were able to lift the can above the ground, was 1/2cm.
Task #4:
Qualitative: We were never able to transfer the empty can into the trash can. We were either unable to lift it up because it was too slippery or it was pushed off the table and knocked to the ground in the process of grabbing. During this task, several pieces like tape, string, and straw came undone from the heavy strain created from gripping the can.
Quantitative: Across our 5 trials, we had a 0% success rate with throwing the can in the bin. The average number of seconds, based on our trials, that we were able to grab before it fell was 0.8.
Task #5:
Qualitative: We weren't able to grip the pencil at all as it was too small. This led to us never being able to write anything with the pencil on the paper.
Quantitative: Across our 5 trials, we had a 0% success rate with writing the word "Hi" on the paper. The task took on average 12 seconds to fail as a result of the pencil rolling off the table.

Quantitative: Over 5 trials, we held the ball for about 1 second on average before it fell. Our success rate for throwing it in the bucket was 0% because we couldn't throw.

Task 2
Qualitative: We were able to hold the cup and move it to the table in every trial. It was a little hard to grab at first, and some tape and straws came undone.
Quantitative: Over 5 trials, we had a 100% success rate moving the cup. The average time to finish the task was about 18 seconds.

Task 3
Qualitative: The soda can was too heavy for our prosthetic and kept slipping. We could not pour any liquid into the cup. Tape, string, and straw pieces fell off from the heavy strain while gripping the can.
Quantitative: Over 5 trials, our success rate for pouring was 0%. We could lift the can only about 0.5 cm above the ground on average.

Task 4
Qualitative: We could not transfer the empty can into the trash can. Sometimes it was too slippery to lift, and other times it was pushed off the table and fell when we tried to grab it. Tape, string, and straw pieces came undone while trying.
Quantitative: Over 5 trials, our success rate for throwing the can in the bin was 0%. We were able to hold it for about 0.8 seconds on average before it fell.

Task 5
Qualitative: We could not grip the pencil because it was too small. We never managed to write with it on the paper.
