Engineering lesson 3: The engineering design process · Set 676 · 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.
