STEPS
This step of the EDP is when you develop a detailed solution &/or technical drawings
Jim has created a prototype for a paper airplane. His design flies for a few moments before crashing. What should Jim's next step be?
Improve/Redesign
How can I alter my design to engineer a cheaper solution that works as well as my first?
Improve/Evaluate
It happens when you're PLANNING.
An original design that is built for testing is called a...
PROTOTYPE
This step of the EDP is when you identify criteria & constraints.
1. ASK/DEFINE
Betty needs to be able to drop her phone without the screen cracking. What step of the design process has she performed?
Identified/Asked a Problem
What is the most promising idea that I should focus on?
Plan
Redesigning
It happens when you IMPROVE.
Limitations or restrictions that a design must follow are called...
CONSTRAINTS
This step of the EDP is when you research.
2. IMAGINE
Engineers meet with city officials to discuss budget and required lifespan for a new pedestrian bridge.
What is the problem I'm trying to solve?
Ask/Define
Creating Sketches/Diagrams
It happens when you're developing a PLAN.
The location where two or more structural pieces are connected together.
Joints
This step of the EDP is when you collect data on the success of your prototype.
5. EXPERIMENT
Frank modifies his plane's wing shape after wind tunnel data.
Improve
What didn't work with my prototype?
Improve/Evaluate
Considering Contraints
It happens when you're asking/defining the problem.
The lowest part of a structure that transfers the building’s loads/forces safely to the ground
Foundation
This step of the EDP is when you think of numerous possible solutions.
2. IMAGINE
Lucy has tested & redesigned her model car & found that it works perfectly. What should she do next?
Share/Communicate her results.
Does my proposed solution actually work?
Experient/Test
Listing numerous creative ideas
It happens with you imagine (brainstorm).
A process that repeats multiple times, with improvements made each cycle is described as...
Iterative
