What is the design process? - ANSWER A systematic problem-solving strategy,
with criteria and constraints, used to develop many possible solutions to solve or
satisfy human needs or wants and to narrow down the possible solutions to one
final choice.
What are the steps of the Design Process? (IN ORDER) - ANSWER Define the
Problem, Generate Concepts, Develop Solution, Construct and Test Prototype,
Evaluate Solution, PRESENT SOLUTION
What is an engineering notebook? - ANSWER A book in which an engineer will
formally document, in chronological order, all of his/her work that is associated
with a specific design project.
Why is the design process iterative? - ANSWER You don't have to follow the
steps in order.
What is a Decision Matrix? - ANSWER A tool used to compare design solutions
against one another, using specific criteria.
Define innovation - ANSWER An improvement of an existing technological
product, system, or method of doing something.
Define invention - ANSWER A new product, system, or process that has never
existed before, created by study and experimentation.
