Engineering lesson 3: The engineering design process · Set 615 · 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 find the limits is the Ask step. (a) False (b) True
2. 2.Which of these happens in the Improve step? (a) pick the build order (b) think of wild ideas (c) fix the weak part (d) list the materials
3. 3.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which comes first: “Create” or “Improve”? (a) Create (b) Improve
4. 4.Which of these happens in the Create step? (a) ask who will use it (b) follow the plan to build (c) dream up possible fixes (d) brainstorm many ideas
5. 5.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which comes first: “Ask” or “Test”? (a) Test (b) Ask

8. 8.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which comes first: “Imagine” or “Test”? (a) Imagine (b) Test
9. 9.🔄 What is the FIRST step of the engineering design process? (a) Create (b) Test (c) Ask (d) Improve
10. 10.Which of these happens in the Imagine step? (a) fix the weak part (b) build the model (c) make it better, retest (d) dream up possible fixes
11. 11.Which of these happens in the Ask step? (a) redesign after testing (b) build the model (c) measure its performance (d) define the problem
12. 12.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, what comes right after “Test”? (a) Improve (b) Create (c) Ask (d) Plan

15. 15.Which of these happens in the Plan step? (a) fix the weak part (b) ask who will use it (c) list the materials (d) find the limits
16. 16.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which is the LAST step? (a) Create (b) Imagine (c) Test (d) Improve
17. 17.Which of these happens in the Create step? (a) brainstorm many ideas (b) make a prototype (c) find the limits (d) redesign after testing
18. 18.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, what comes right after “Imagine”? (a) Ask (b) Test (c) Plan (d) Create
19. 19.🔄 After testing, a design does not work well. What comes next? (a) Improve (b) Ask (c) Imagine (d) give up
20. 20.True or false: to dream up possible fixes is the Imagine step. (a) False (b) True

23. 23.Which of these happens in the Imagine step? (a) measure its performance (b) list the materials (c) brainstorm many ideas (d) make a prototype
24. 24.True or false: to brainstorm many ideas is the Imagine step. (a) False (b) True
25. 25.🔄 Which design-process step is it to think of wild ideas? (a) Imagine (b) Improve (c) Create (d) Ask
