| Description | Students practice the initial steps involved in an engineering design challenge. They review the steps of the engineering design loop, discuss the client need for the project, identify a relevant context, define the problem within their design teams, and examine the project's requirements and constraints. Students practice the initial steps involved in an engineering design challenge. They begin by reviewing the steps of the engineering design loop and discussing the client need for the project. Next, they identify a relevant context, define the problem within their design teams, and examine the project's requirements and constraints. (Note: Conduct this activity in the context of a design project that students are working on, which could be a challenge determined by the teacher, brainstormed with the class, or the example project challenge provided [to design a prosthetic arm that can perform a mechanical function].) |
