| the first fully working product that uses a design solution | prototype |
| a set of steps for developing products | design/engineering process |
| someone who designs & builds things to solve problems | engineer |
| objects or ideas that represent other things | models |
| the step in the design process where you learn about other people's work | Step 2: Research |
| Besides solving the problem, what other factors need to be considered when making a prototype | cost, safety, amount of time it takes to make it, available materials |
| The last step in the design process | evaluate & redesign |
| the knowledge, processes, and products that solve problems and make work easier | technology |
| The 1st step of the design process | Identify the problem |
| The 1st thing a solution in a design project must do | solve the problem |
| A GPS uses data from these to provide information about a location | satellites |
| What GPS stands for | Global Positioning System |
| The main purpose for building a prototype is... | to see if it will work |
| Identify problem, Research, Possible Solutions, Choose solution, Design & construct prototype, Test prototype, communicate results, Evaluate & redesign | Steps in the Design Process |
| Why is recording measurements important? | So you can rebuild your design |
| Why it's important to communicate your results | So others can use your information for their work |
| Another name for the design process | engineering process |
| Who can use the design process? | Everyone |
| What solution did the Wright Bros use to turn their plane? | wing warping - twisting the wings |
