What is the purpose of brainstorming solutions in the engineering design process?

• To discourage collaboration among team members

• To generate a wide range of ideas and possibilities.

• To limit creativity and innovation

• To narrow down the choices quickly

Why is testing and evaluating an important step in the engineering design process?

• To ignore any potential issues

• To make the process longer and more complicated

• To waste time and resources

• To identify flaws and ensure the final product meets standards

What does iterating design mean in the context of engineering design process?

• Ignoring the feedback and test results

• Continuous refinement and improvement of the design through multiple cycles of testing, evaluation, and modification.

• Creating the final design without any changes

• Implementing the design without any evaluation

How can the design be improved through iteration in the engineering design process?

• By ignoring feedback and suggestions from others

• Through making small changes and testing the design multiple times.

• By completely changing the design each time

• By rushing through the testing phase without making any changes

Why is it important to effectively communicate the results of the engineering design process?

• To avoid feedback and criticism

• To share important information, obtain feedback, and ensure the design meets required specifications.

• To keep the results a secret and maintain a competitive advantage

• To confuse others with technical jargon
