Engineering lesson 3: The engineering design process · Set 905 · 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.Which of these happens in the Ask step? (a) define the problem (b) make a prototype (c) check it against goals (d) follow the plan to build
2. 2.True or false: to make a prototype is the Create step. (a) True (b) False

4. 4.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, which is the LAST step? (a) Imagine (b) Improve (c) Test (d) Ask

17. 17.🔄 Which design-process step is it to check it against goals? (a) Ask (b) Test (c) Imagine (d) Create
18. 18.Which of these happens in the Improve step? (a) think of wild ideas (b) pick the build order (c) redesign after testing (d) make a prototype
