Grace, James, and Oliver are working together on a cool project! Which step in the Engineering Design Process should they use to plan their solution?
Define the need and constraints clearly
Randomly test ideas without notes
Skip prototypes to save classroom time
Choose the first idea that appears
Abigail and Liam are working together on a 2D CAD project. They want to keep their drawing organized by putting different elements into separate editable groups. Which feature should they use to make their teamwork easier?
Layers for grouping and visibility
Fillet for rounding interior corners
Offset for copying parallel lines
Trim for cutting extra segments
Abigail, Liam, and Sophia are on a measurement mission! They’ve used US customary and metric rulers to check a part. Now, they want to verify some super small dimensions. Which tool should they grab next for the most accurate results?
Compass for drawing circles
Protractor for angle checks
Dial calipers for precise readings
Tape measure for long spans

Torque and gear ratios interaction
Title blocks formatting details
Layer naming in CAD files
Scale selection in sketching
Grace, Noah, and Ava are about to start an electronics lab adventure! Which classroom safety practice should they follow before powering up their circuits?

What is the significance of prototyping in the engineering design process?
It is solely for marketing purposes.
It allows the design team to test and refine the functionality of a design before full-scale production.
It is a legal requirement.
It determines the color scheme of the product.
After generating several ideas to solve a problem, which step involves creating detailed design drawings, including technical drawings and models?
Generate Concepts

test
During which step of the Design Process do you experiment with the prototype under controlled conditions and collect /record data?
Test the Model
Construct a Model
Identify Failure Points
Reflect and Redesign
When do you test your model and write down what happens?

Find What Broke
Think and Fix
How will the engineers determine that this prototype meets their design requirements?
A group of students are designing a solar cooker. As part of the design process, the students must test a prototype to see if it is able to boil water. What should the students do just before they test it?
Test and evaluate the prototype.
Imagine possible solutions.
Change the prototype and retest it.
Plan and make a prototype.
Identify and research a need.
