IED EOC ReviewHow might we create the best possible solution to a problem? - answer Engineers try to
think "outside the box" to solve new problems or find ways to improve current solutions.
What is the most effective way to generate potential solutions to a problem? - answer
Brainstorming with a group, research, and testing possible solutions
What is an engineer? - answer Engineering is the application of mathematics and
scientific principles to better or improve life. An engineer is a person who is trained in
and uses technological and scientific knowledge to solve practical problems.
Why keep an Engineering Notebook? - answerAn engineering notebook is recognized
as a legal document that is used in patent activities to
a. prove the origin of an idea that led to a solution
b. prove when events of ideas occured
c. prove diligence in turning the idea into a solution
d. prove when an idea became a working solution
What are the 4 best practices for the Engineering Notebook? - answer Be neat,
accurate, legible, and thorough
Explain the concept of proportion - answer Paying close attention to the underlying
basic shapes and the relative proportions of various features of the object will allow you
to more accurately reflect the true shapes and proportions of the object in your sketch.
Why would the ability to create realistic sketches make a person a more competent
designer? - answer Representing existing objects and new ideas with sketches can
make the design process more effective and efficient and greatly enhance the ability of
others to understand your ideas. Allows them to communicate their ideas more clearly.
What is the purpose of sketching your ideas? - answerSketches provide a means
through which one can quickly and clearly communicate ideas.
Define and differentiate invention and innovation. - answerInvention: a new product,
system, or process that has never existed before, created by study and experimentation
Innovation: an improvement of an existing technological product, system, or method of
doing something
Brainstorm - answera group technique for solving problems
Constraint - answer1. a limit to a design process. Constraints may be such things as
appearance, funding, space, materials, and human capabilities.
, 2. a limitation or restriction
Design - answer1. an iterative decision-making process that produces plans by which
resources are converted into products or systems that meet human needs and wants or
solve problems.
2. a plan or drawing produced to show the look and function or workings of something
before its built or made
3. a decorative pattern
Design Brief - answera written plan that identifies a problem to be solved, its criteria,
and its constraints. The design brief is used to encourage thinking of all aspects of a
problem before attempting a solution.
Design Statement - answera part of a design brief that challenges the designer,
describes what a design solution should do without describing how to solve the
problem, and identifies the degree to which the solution must be executed
Engineering Notebook - answeran engineering notebook is 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
Prototype - answera full-scale working model used to test a design concept by making
actual observations and necessary adjustments
Research - answerthe systematic study of materials and sources in order to establish
facts and reach conclusions
What are the 6 steps in the design process? - answer1. Define Problem
2. Generate Concepts
3. Develop a Solution
4. Construct and Test Prototype
5. Evaluate Solution
6. Present Solution
What are some different engineering disciplines? - answerChemical, Civil, Electrical,
Mechanical, Aeronautical, Agricultural, Architectural, Automotive, Biomedical,
Computer, Industrial, Manufacturing
Tonal Shading - answerthe representation of light and shade of a sketch or map
Center Line - answera line which defines the centers of arcs, circles, or symmetrical
parts
Extension Line - answerline which represents where a dimension starts and stops
Dimension Line - answera line which represents distance
