What is the first step in the engineering design process?

• Identify the problem

• Brainstorm solutions

• Define the problem

• Test the prototype

Which step involves coming up with as many ideas as possible to solve a problem?

• Select

• Prototype

• Brainstorm

• Communicate

During which step do you choose the best idea to move forward with?

• Identify

• Select

• Iterate

• Test

What is the purpose of creating a prototype?

• To communicate results

• To test different materials

• To build a model to see if it works

• To brainstorm new ideas

Which step involves making changes to improve the design?

• Iterate

• Prototype

• Brainstorm

• Define

Why is it important to define the problem before starting to brainstorm solutions?

• To ensure everyone understands the issue

• To save time during brainstorming

• To avoid unnecessary discussions

• To make the process more enjoyable

Testing a prototype helps in the engineering design process by:

• Identifying design flaws and areas for improvement

• Increasing the overall cost of the project

• Reducing the need for further testing

• Ensuring the final product is identical to the prototype

What might happen if you skip the iteration step in the engineering design process?

• The design may not be improved.

• The project will definitely succeed.

• The cost will decrease significantly.

• The timeline will be shortened.

The step where you come up with many possible solutions is called __________.

• Brainstorm

• Analysis

• Implementation

• Evaluation

After creating a prototype, you need to __________ it to see how well it works.

• Test

• Ignore

• Discard

• Modify
