1.

The step in the engineering design process where you need to identify your success criteria?

a)

testing prototype

b)

design your solution

c)

define the problem

d)

engineer

e)

failing forward

2.

When someone learns from their mistakes

a)

testing prototype

b)

failing forward

c)

engineers

d)

define the problem

e)

design a solution

3.

This is the step in the engineering design process where you determine if the model, drawing or other example met the success criteria. This step is repeated until there is success.

a)

testing the prototype

b)

engineers

c)

define the problem

d)

design a solution failing forward

4.

This is the first step in the engineer design process.

a)

testing the prototype

b)

failing forward

c)

engineers

d)

define the problem

e)

design a solution

5.

People who design and build things to solve problems/

a)

testing prototype

b)

failing forward

c)

engineers

d)

define the problem

e)

design a solution

6.

A condition or value that can be changed

a)

engineers

b)

prototype

c)

criteria

d)

variables

7.

This is the step in the engineer design process where you brainstorm idea that could solve the problem.

a)

design the solution

b)

variables

c)

develop many possible solution

d)

define the problem

8.

Which statement best matches the definition of a prototype?

a)

A prototype is usually the first model built of a particular design

b)

A prototype is a type of technology that take a long tome to build

c)

A prototype is the end result of multiple attempts to build a design

d)

A prototype is a type of computer

9.

Select the best answer that matches the purpose of building a prototype?

a)

Prototypes allow scientists to compete to build the best version of technology

b)

Warehouses are able to build prototypes

c)

A prototype is an early example of technology. It allows scientist to test their ideas and then make adjustments based on their observations

d)

Prototypes allow scientists to talk to peers to talk about how their prototype is the best.

10.

In which of the following scenarios would a prototype most likely NOT to needed?

a)

Engineers discovered that lithium batteries are not safe to use in smartphones. Engineers well need to build a different version of a smartphone that does not use lithium batteries

b)

Carl has a great idea to build a type of hoverboard that had never been make. Before spending money on the actual product he built a prototype.

c)

A group of carpenters was recently hired to build a house. Before building the house, they build a model of what it will look like.

d)

Elizabeth bought a large bucket of snap toys. She wanted to see how many things she could build. After she builds her items , she asked her friend for her opinion.

11.

Many engineers follow the engineering design when building a prototype. What is the first of the Engineering Design Process?

a)

Share the solution

b)

test, collect data, redesign if necessary

c)

Define the problem

d)

Develop and plan a model

12.

Engineers only change one variable at a time so we can determine which variable made a difference.

a)

True

b)

False

13.

This is the step in the engineering design process where you determine if the prototype met the success criteria. This step will be repeated until there is success.
