Engineering lesson 3: The engineering design process · Set 472 · 40 questions

Engineer's tip (Ask, imagine, plan, create, test, improve): Ask (problem, users, limits) → Imagine (many ideas) → Plan (diagram, materials). Create (build a prototype) → Test (measure) → Improve (fix and retest). It is a loop: after Improve, test again.

1. 1.True or false: to make it better, retest is the Improve step. (a) True (b) False
2. 2.True or false: to redesign after testing is the Plan step. (a) True (b) False
3. 3.🔄 What is the FIRST step of the engineering design process? (a) Create (b) Test (c) Improve (d) Ask
4. 4.Which of these happens in the Create step? (a) define the problem (b) try it out (c) pick the build order (d) make a prototype
5. 5.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which is the LAST step? (a) Test (b) Improve (c) Ask (d) Imagine
6. 6.🔄 Is the engineering design process done only once? (a) only for big jobs (b) no, it repeats (c) yes, only once (d) only on Sundays
7. 7.True or false: to build the model is the Create step. (a) False (b) True
