Introduction to Engineering
An engineer is...
What is a person who designs and builds products/systems to help solve problems.
The M in Steam.
What is Math?
What is a simple Machine?
A device that allows work to be performed with less effort, has few or no moving parts, and makes work easier by changing force, distance, or changing the direction of the force.
The engineering field that maintains mechanical systems.
What is Mechanical Engineering?
The definition of The Design Process.
What is a systematic, problem-solving strategy that designers follow to come up with a solution to a problem?
The difference between a need and a want
What is need is something needed to survive while a want is a desire that you can live without?
The A in STEAM
What is a compound machine?
Two or more simple machines working together to make work easier.
What is Aerospace engineer?
The first step of the design process.
The difference between and invention and an innovation.
What is an invention is a whole new product or system while an innovation is an improvement to a past invention?
The S in STEAM
What is science?
What is a example of a Wheel and Axle.
What is (steering wheel, doorknob, wheels, etc)
The engineering field that has to do with farming.
What is Agricultural Engineering?
The last step of the design process.
What is present solution?
Is needed to create new technology.
What is knowledge of math and science?
The T in STEAM
What is Technology?
What is an example of a compound machine
What is (scissors, bicycle, shovel, pencil sharpener, wheelbarrow, etc)
The branch of engineering that integrates electronic engineering with computer sciences.
What is Computer Engineering?
The 3rd Step of the design process.
What is design solution?
The 4 works that are interrelated.
What is science, math, technology, and engineering?
The difference between science and engineering.
What is science is the study of the physical world while engineering applies scientific knowledge to design products and systems?
What are the six simple machines?
What is a lever, a wheel and axle, a pulley, an inclined plane, a wedge, and a screw.
The engineering field that find ways to eliminate wastefulness in production processes.
What is Industrial Engineering?
What is Evaluate Solution?
