What is the first step in the engineering design process?

• background research

• test solution

• develop prototype

• define the problem

What is a prototype?

• an idea

• an operating version of a solution

• a robot to solve a solution

• how you brainstorm for the EDP

Which step of the Design Process involves communicating the results of your tests

• Ask 
• Imagine
• Improve
• Share Results

If your initial design doesn't fully solve theproblem or meet the challenge, you must go back and revise your plan. This is part of which step in the Design Process?

• Create
• Improve
• Ask 
• Imagine

During which step of the Design Process do you experiment with the prototype under controlled conditions and collect /record data

• Test and Evaluate
• Imagine
• Improve
• Share Results

The engineering process begins

• when you brainstorm new ideas 
• creating an advertisment
• identifying the need or solution to a problem

If your prototype does not work, what should you do?

• forget the entire project

• communicate the results anyways

• make changes to the prototype and test again

• make changes to the prototype and communicate the results
