PLTW Design Cycle Assessment

What is the first step in the PLTW Design Cycle?

• Develop a solution

• Define the problem

• Evaluate the solution

• Test the solution

In the PLTW Design Cycle, which step involves gathering feedback to improve the design?

• Define the problem

• Test the solution

• Evaluate the solution

• Construct a prototype

The purpose of brainstorming during the design process is to:

• Limit ideas to the most feasible

• Generate as many ideas as possible

• Develop a final solution

• Test existing solutions
