Front

What is the fourth step in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

Create: Build a prototype or model of the solution.

Front

What is the fifth step in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

Test: Try out the prototype to see if it works.

What does 'constraints' mean in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

Limits or restrictions that must be considered when designing a solution.

Front

What does 'criteria' mean in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

The goals or standards that the solution must meet.

Front

Why is it important to identify the problem first?

Back

It helps to focus the design efforts on finding a specific solution.
