1st Nine Week POE

What is the first step in the engineering design process?

• Creating a prototype

• Identifying the problem

• Testing the solution

• Communicating the results

Which step involves generating multiple ideas to solve the problem?

• Evaluating the solution

• Defining the constraints

• Brainstorming

• Building a model

During which step are models and prototypes usually created?

• Researching the problem

• Developing possible solutions

• Testing and evaluating

• Communicating the results

Why is it important to test and evaluate a solution?

• To ensure the solution is cost-effective

• To see if the solution meets the requirements

• To finalize the design

• To communicate the design

What should engineers do if their initial solution does not work as intended?

• Abandon the project

• Blame the team

• Redefine the problem

• Iterate and improve the design

__________ involves using mathematics, science, and technology to develop products and systems that benefit society.

• Engineering

• Cooking

• Painting

• Dancing

Which of the following represents a specific sequence of steps guiding an engineer from problem-identification to final solution?

• Design process

• Blueprint

• Innovation cycle

• Experimentation method

Which individuals could be part of an engineering team?

• Only engineers

• Only scientists

• Only mathematicians

• Engineers, scientists, and technicians

What term describes a highly skilled professional who applies knowledge and expertise to solve complex problems?

• Scientist

• Technician

• Engineer

• Inventor

Why is it important for engineers to follow the engineering design process when creating new products or solving problems?

• Because it ensures their ideas are practical and safe.

• Because it allows them to work faster and finish projects sooner.

• Because it guarantees their inventions will be the most expensive.

• Because it helps them win awards and recognition from their peers.
