Karen is going on a long vacation and decides she needs to create a device that can help her water her plants (her prized Rutabagas) while she is away.

What step of the Engineering Process is this?

For inspiration, Karen uses Google to look up the designs other people have made to water their plants automatically.

Which part of the engineering process is this?

KAREN takes out some paper and draws out plans for a device that can help her. This device will have a sensor that will detect when the Rutabaga's will need water, and will turn the sprinklers on for a set amount of time.

What step of the engineering process is this?

Karen uses her plans and builds her device.

What part of the engineering process is this?

Before Karen goes on her vacation, she hooks up her device, and runs an experiment to see how it works.

What part of the engineering process is this?

Karen realizes that although her design is amazing, she forgot to add a power source for the sensor to work! She then takes another sheet of paper to design "Rudy's Rutabaga Waterer 2.0".

What part of the engineering process is this?

Once she is satisfied with her desgin, KAREN calls up her farmer friends, Cindy the Celery farmer and Sugar Cane Dwayne, to share her findings.
