Test 1 Practice

This step in Design Process includes researching past solutions and brainstorming possible new solutions.

You come up with lots of ideas and then pick one.

• Develop the Solution

• Generate Concepts

• Define the Problem

• Evaluate the Solution

This step in Design Process includes creating a detailed design solution and detailed technical drawings.

• Present the Solution

• Generate Concepts

• Evaluate the Solution

• Develop a Solution

This step in Design Process includes evaluating the solution's effectiveness, reflecting on design, making recommendation for improvements of the design, and revising design documents

• Evaluate the Solution

• Develop a Solution

• Define the Problem

• Test the Solution

This document provides information regarding the problem, the target audience and the criteria and constraints.

• Decision Matrix

• Technical Drawings

• Design Brief

• Portfolio

After building a paper airplane, you throw it and it immediately crashes. You realize that there is a major flaw in your design. What should be the next step?

• Destroy the old airplane and start from scratch

• Change the design and test it again

• Use a different color paper

• Steal someone else's design

A technology company has identified the need for a smaller laptop computer that weighs less, but they do not have enough knowledge about how to build it.

What would be the next logical step engineers would take to design and produce this laptop computer?

• Research current laptop technology

• Build a new type of battery

• Start building a new computer

What is the purpose of building a prototype?

• to determine the design constraints for the product

• to make sure that the product is in compliance with government regulations

• to test the product and make sure that it is the best solution to the problem

What is the main goal of the design process?

• To write reports

• To make things

• To make charts and graphs

• To find solutions to problems

When finding the solution to an engineering problem, there is/are usually . . .

• Only one possible correct solution

• a very limited number of correct solutions

• many possible correct solutions

Primary Research can be done during which step in the Design Process?

• Define the Problem

• Brainstorming

• Present the Solution

• Develop a Solution
