Technological Design Process

What is the first step in the technological design process?

• gathering information about an existing product
• coming up with ideas for a new product
• recognizing the need for a solution to a problem

Technological design and scientific investigation both use

• experience and evidence
• evidence and reasoning
• luck and circumstance

What is the last step in the technological design process?

• Identify a problem or need
• evaluate the solution or the product
• design a solution
• implement the design

When engineers develop a model, which step in the technological process is taking place?

• identify a problem or need
• design a solution or product
• implementing the design
• evaluating the solution or product

During which step of the design process do you test the solution or product?

• Identify a problem or need
• Design a solution or product
• Evaluate the solution or product
• Implement the design

In which step of the design process would the engineer make adjustments to the design?

• identify a problem or need
• design a solution or product
• Implement the design
• evaluate the solution or product

Which sentence describes a way scientific investigation and technological design are similar?

• both start with a hypothesis
• both produce a product to make life easier
• both involve analyzing results of tests
• both involve using only expensive materials

If a design flaw is discovered, what is the next logical step for the design team?

• test the prototype again
• scrap the project and start again
• modify the design to solve the problem
• obtain more money to support continued research 

Which of these represents the correct order of steps in technological design?

• problem identification, implementation, evaluation, solution design
• problem identification, solution design, implementation, evaluation
•  solution design, implementation, problem identification, evaluation
•  solution design, problem identification, evaluation, implementation
