Engineering Moran

What is the First Step of the Engineering Design Process

• Testing Solutions

• Designing Solutions

• Identifying the Problem

• Planning Solutions

What two things determine whether or not engineering solutions are successful?

• If it stays within the constraints

• If it looks cool

• If it solves a problem

• If it meets the criteria

An engineer has designed and built a prototype to improve the brake system of a car. What is the next step that the engineer should take in the process?

• Test the prototype.
• Make sketches of the prototype.
• Identify constraints.
• Collect and analyze the test results.

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

• Create a Model

• Redesign and Reflect

• Identify Problems

• Plan Solutions

Which answer (or answers) best describes criteria?

• how the model could fail

• the limits of the model

• what the model must look like

• what the model must do
