Quarter 1 Pre-Test

What is the primary goal of the Engineering Design Process?

• To produce solutions that fulfill human needs and wants

• To conduct scientific experiments

• To create artistic designs

• To develop new technologies without constraints

What does the term "iterative" refer to in the Engineering Design Process?

• A one-time solution development

• A linear process of design

• Repeating the process multiple times for improvement

• Documenting each step of the process

How does the Engineering Design Process differ from the Scientific Method?

• The Engineering Design Process follows a linear procedure

• The Scientific Method focuses on creating tangible products

• The Engineering Design Process meets human needs and wants

• The Scientific Method involves criteria and constraints

Which step in the Engineering Design Process involves creating a Decision Matrix?

• Define the problem

• Select an approach

• Brainstorm solutions

• Make a model/prototype

What is the purpose of using an Engineering Design Journal?

• To document every step of the design process

• To conduct scientific experiments

• To create artistic designs

• To develop new technologies without constraints

What are "criteria" in the context of the Engineering Design Process?

• Limitations that must be observed

• Guidelines and goals for solving a problem

• Steps for conducting research

• Tools for making prototypes

What is a key principle of Universal Design in engineering?

• Complex and detailed use

• Low physical effort

• High-level technical knowledge required

• Focus solely on functionality

How are trade-offs managed in the Engineering Design Process?

• By ignoring constraints

• By balancing conflicting benefits and drawbacks

• By increasing project costs

• By avoiding alternative solutions

Which of the following is NOT a factor in Universal Design?

• Equitable use

• Tolerance for error

• High production cost

• Simple and intuitive use

What is the role of a Design Proposal in the Engineering Design Process?

• To outline the steps for a scientific experiment

• To detail the plan of action for the chosen design

• To document the artistic elements of the design

• To create a prototype of the solution
