The design process is....
a systematic way to rule out group ideas
a ranking system where a score is given for categories
a systematic method used by engineers to solve problems
Which step of the design process includes "Brainstorming"?
Define problem
Generate concepts
Build a prototype
When you build your prototype it is really important to do this...
Rebuild it
Test it many times
Present it
When do we usually create a Decision Matrix?
After we have brain stormed and generated concepts
After we have built and tested our design
After we have evaluated a solution
When designing a solution you should also create this:
A built selected model
An assessment of your model
A technical drawing
Presenting your solution is like:
Looking for flaws
Pitching your sales idea
Brainstorming
Asking things like "What is the issue we need to solve?", or "What are my criteria/constraints?"...would be which step?
Design a solution
Generate Concepts
Define Problem
When I look for and collect data for FLAWS in my design, I am at this step:
Design a solution
Build/Test prototype
Evaluate solution
Using one of these will help your group decide on which model to build:
Design Brief
Design Evaluator
Decision Matrix
We usually draw a rough sketch during this step:
Generate Concepts
Build/Test Prototype
Evaluate Solution
If I find flaws in my solution I should....
Create a technical drawing instead
Be formal and perfect
go back and make modifications before moving forward
What do we call limitations like "time, cost and/or materials" within a challenge?
Complications
Constraints
Criteria
What are the "Must-Haves" in a project or challenge called?
Criteria
Constraints
Brainstorming
Adding a detailed drawing of the group's idea is completed at this step of the design process.
Define the problem
Design a solution
Evaluate solution
Even though we can "always" go back and fix a flawed solution, at what step would it be hardest to "go backwards"?
When you are building/testing a prototype
When you are evaluating a solution
When you are presenting your solution
Why are there arrows going in all directions here?
To show that many ideas come from everyone
To show that the chart is incomplete
To show that you can go back to previous steps if needed
Based on this chart, which idea was best?
Idea 2
Idea 6
Idea 3
Idea 4
Which Idea was "WORST" for development time?
Idea 5
Idea 3
Idea 2
Idea 1
Which step is most likely represented here?
Define Problem
Design A Solution
Build and Test
Often times creating a Design Brief takes place during this step:
Design solution
Build/Test prototype
Define Problem
