Engineering lesson 3: The engineering design process · Set 749 · 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 build the model is the Create step. (a) True (b) False
2. 2.Which of these happens in the Create step? (a) make it better, retest (b) list the materials (c) fix the weak part (d) make a prototype
3. 3.🔄 Which design-process step is it to pick the build order? (a) Plan (b) Create (c) Imagine (d) Improve
4. 4.True or false: to brainstorm many ideas is the Ask step. (a) True (b) False
5. 5.Which of these happens in the Imagine step? (a) dream up possible fixes (b) measure its performance (c) list the materials (d) check it against goals

11. 11.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, what comes right after “Imagine”? (a) Improve (b) Test (c) Ask (d) Plan
12. 12.🔄 Is the engineering design process done only once? (a) no, it repeats (b) only on Sundays (c) yes, only once (d) only for big jobs
13. 13.Which of these happens in the Ask step? (a) ask who will use it (b) think of wild ideas (c) check it against goals (d) make it better, retest

15. 15.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, what comes right after “Ask”? (a) Improve (b) Imagine (c) Plan (d) Test
16. 16.🔄 After testing, a design does not work well. What comes next? (a) Imagine (b) Ask (c) Improve (d) give up
17. 17.Which of these happens in the Plan step? (a) try it out (b) draw a labelled diagram (c) think of wild ideas (d) fix the weak part
18. 18.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which comes first: “Ask” or “Improve”? (a) Improve (b) Ask
19. 19.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which comes first: “Imagine” or “Improve”? (a) Improve (b) Imagine
20. 20.🔄 Which design-process step is it to define the problem? (a) Imagine (b) Test (c) Plan (d) Ask
