Engineering Video: CCK Defining the problem 18.1 - T1Wk1

What is the first step in the Engineering Process?

• Designing the solution

• Defining the problem

• Testing the system

• Building the structure

What is the main focus of engineers?

• Solving mathematical equations

• Understanding how and why things work

• Writing novels

• Creating art pieces

How do engineers approach solving a problem?

• By asking no questions

• By ignoring the problem

• By following a series of steps

• By guessing randomly

What is the key to being a good engineer when defining a problem?

• Being vague and general

• Asking as few questions as possible

• Defining the problem specifically and solvably

• Complaining loudly about the problem

What is the solvable problem identified in the text?

• Flying across a canyon

• Not knowing how to cross a canyon

• Wanting to get to the other side of a canyon

• Being on one side of a canyon

What is the main purpose of asking questions when defining a problem?

• To define the problem specifically

• To confuse oneself

• To waste time

• To make the problem more complicated

What is the outcome of defining a problem in a solvable way?

• Solving the problem effectively

• Creating more problems

• Ignoring the problem

• Never solving the problem

What is the next step after defining the problem in the Engineering Process?

• Asking more questions

• Testing the system

• Designing and planning

• Building the solution
