Engineering Design
How can we use the engineering design process to solve real-world problems?
Critical Thinking: Apply logical reasoning to design and improve solutions.
Collaboration: Work with others to brainstorm and build prototypes.
Adaptive Perseverance: Iteratively test and refine designs based on feedback.
What steps are involved in designing a solution to a problem?
How do engineers test and improve their designs?
How can we evaluate the effectiveness of different solutions?
Students will create and test a prototype to solve a given problem.
Students will evaluate various solutions based on criteria and constraints.
Next Gen Science Standards 3-5-ETS1: Engineering Design
3-5-ETS1-1. Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.
3-5-ETS1-2. Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
3-5-ETS1-3. Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved.
