Match the following
A method of shared problem solving in which all members of a group spontaneously, and in an unrestrained discussion, generate ideas.
Brainstorming
A tool for systematically ranking alternatives according to a set of criteria.
Decision Matrix
A limit to the design process. May be such things as appearance, funding, space, materials, and human capabilities.
Constraints
What is a written plan that identifies a problem to be solved, its criteria, and its constraints. It is used to encourage thinking of all aspects of a problem before attempting a solution.
(a)
What is a systematic problem-solving strategy, with criteria and constraints, used to develop many possible solutions to a problem or to satisfy human needs and wants and winnow (narrow) down the possible solutions to one final choice.
(a)
What is to observe or study by close examination and systematic inquiry.
(a)
An iterative decision-making process that produces plans by which resources are converted into products or systems that meet human needs and wants or solve problems.
