Engineering Design Process

Front

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.

Back

generate concepts

Front

Is the first step in the design process. Includes the problem being identified, validated, and justified. The design requirements are determined and the design brief is created.

Back

define the problem

Front

This step in Design process includes building the a testable prototype. Then testing it for performance/ usability/ durability, collecting the data, analyzing the date and creating a test report of the findings.

Back

construct and test a prototype

Front

This is the last step in the Design process and is when the project portfolio is shared usually during a presentation.

Back

present solution

Front

Is the Design Process truly linear?

Back

No, we constantly should evaluate and reflect at every step

Front

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?

Back

Change the design and test it again.
