Title: Define an engineering design process.
Course: Engineering Explorations I-(21005-36) > Section: Examining the Engineering Design Process

Definition of an engineering design process should include multiple steps, such as

- identifying and defining problems
- identifying constraints and requirements/criteria for success
- brainstorming potential solutions
- visually communicating potential solutions
- evaluating potential solutions
- considering constraints
- identifying an optimal solution
- creating a model and/or prototype
- testing the solution
- evaluating results
- iterating or modifying as needed
- communicating final results.

Process/Skill Questions:

- How does the engineering design process differ from the scientific method?
- What determines the order of the engineering design steps?
