1st Step of the Engineering Design Process
Construct a prototype
Research the problem
Redisign
Identify the problem
After Identifying the Problem, you should
Developing possible solutions
Research the problem
Construct your prototype
Brainstorm
Once your team does their research, you should then
Brainstorm to develop ideas
Gather your materials and construct the prototype
Test and evaluate
Select the best possible solution
Right before you Construct your Prototype, you will need to
Brainstorm, develop possible solutions
Communicate the solution
Select the best solution
Test and Evaluate
After you Select the best possible solution, you should
Research
Brainstorm for more ideas
Redesign your prototype
Construct your prototype
After building your prototype, in order to assess the success of the prototype, you will need to
Communicate the design
Iterate
Test and evaluate
Identify the problem
Giving a presentation to the class or making a commercial will help you let others know about your design. This step is
Identifying the problem
Communicating your design
Researching
Developing solutions
If your prototype does not turn out as planned, you can always
Brainstorm
Research new ideas
Redesign your prototype
Test and evaluate
A limitation or restriction that must be followed by designers and that may affect the output.
