Customer Requirements, Product Selection, Target Audience Design and build a prototype of a child’s toy STEM related High schooler interested in pursuing a major in engineering Fun Educational and beneficial towards preparing high schoolers for majoring in a STEM degree A trivia game worked best for these goals

Conceptual Design Similar to ”Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader?” STEM related Topics include: Calculus I & II, General Chemistry, Physics- Mechanics, Basic Math- trigonometry, geometry, algebra, vectors, components, unit circle Material you should know in high school, need to know coming into college, and/or material you will learn your freshman year of college majoring in engineering Goals to be reflective of first year engineering material To cover previously learned information and to make the player learn some new material

Conceptual Design Game Board Money board like in ”Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader?” Equation Sheet Unit Circle Question Cards Game Pieces Advantage Pieces Periodic Table

Final Design Game Board- Unit Circle “GPA Board”- how you win or lose the game Game Pieces to move around on the game board Advantage Pieces- copy, peek, save 112 Question Cards Calculus, Chemistry, Physics- Mechanics, Basic Math Periodic Table

So you Think you Wanna be an Engineer? In order to reflect necessary academic information for a first year engineering student learned in high school combined with some college applications and things learned in college, we built a game. Educational Fun STEM related Inspired by “Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader?”

Customer Feedback and Results Overall the idea was well liked Some of the questions were too hard for high school students Specifically, the Calculus II questions

Cost and Time Estimates Prototyping Costs: $20.51 Design Time: 34 hours Material Cost for 1000 Units: $20,400 Retail Price for 1 unit: $28.00

Conclusions An equation sheet should be added Good idea for a game
