Notes Science Tennessee SPI Objective: Essential Question(s) SPI 0807.T/E.2 Engineering Design Process Notes Science Tennessee SPI Objective: Evaluate a protocol to determine if the engineering design process was successfully applied. Essential Question(s) Describe all the steps of the process by which technology products are designed, built, tested, and produced. Check for Understanding Apply the engineering design process to construct a prototype that meets given specifications.

Engineering Design Process (EDP) EDP is used to develop technology products and/or solutions. …is different from the scientific method, but uses the same tools

(5 Steps with sub-steps) Develop Possible Solutions Engineering Design Process Four Phases (5 Steps with sub-steps) (Step 5A) Produce/Use/Sell it (Step 1A) Do research about this technology STEP 1: Identify and Research A Need (Design Phase) (Production Phase) (Design Phase) STEP 5: Modify and Retest STEP 2: Develop Possible Solutions (Testing Phase) Four Phases 1) Design 2) Construction 3) Testing 4) Production (Design Phase) (Step 2A) Pick the best design (Design Phase) STEP 4: Test and Evaluate STEP 3: Make A Prototype (Testing Phase) (Construction Phase)

Engineering Design Process Early Phone Prototype "Mark 1 Version" (EDP Step 1) Identify and Research A Need What need did this technology address? Was it a "life or death" need? (EDP Step 2) Develop possible solutions What are some other ways they could have addressed the need for communication? (EDP Step 3) Build a prototype What materials did they use when constructing these early phones?

Engineering Design Process (EDP Steps 4 and 5) Step 4: Test the prototype Step 5: Modify the prototype and re-test it What improvements do you notice in the phones shown below? Early Phone Prototype "Mark 2 Version" Early Phone Prototype "Mark 3 Version" Early Phone Prototype "Mark 4 Version"

Engineering Design Process (EDP Steps 4 and 5) Step 4: Test the prototype Step 5: Modify the prototype and re-test it What improvements do you notice in the phones shown below? Phone Prototype "Mark 5 Version" Phone Prototype "Mark 6 Version" Phone Prototype "Mark 7 Version"

Engineering Design Process (EDP Steps 4 and 5) Step 4: Test the prototype Step 5: Modify the prototype and re-test it What improvements do you notice in the phones shown below? Phone Prototype "Mark 8 Version" Phone Prototypes "Mark 9 Versions"

-From the movie “Ironman” EDP in the Movies -From the movie “Ironman”

-From the movie “Ironman” EDP in the Movies -From the movie “Ironman” Billionaire genius and weapons designer Tony Stark is captured by terrorists, and they want him to build a super-weapon. Instead he builds an armored exoskeleton to fight them. 1st Prototype Mark 1 Version 3rd Prototype Mark 3 Version

Prototypes are often called mark versions 1st Prototype Mark 1 Version 2nd Prototype Mark 2 Version 3rd Prototype Mark 3 Version Prototypes are often called mark versions

Engineering Design Process SPI 0807.T/E.2 Engineering Design Process Step 1: Identify a need Why did Tony Stark build the "Iron Man" suit? Step 1A: Do Research about the technology Did Tony do any research first? Step 2: Develop Possible Solutions What are some other options he could have built instead? Step 2A: Pick the best design Do you think the "Iron Man" suit was the best design? Step 3: Make a prototype Where and how did Tony build his prototype(s) Step 4: Test the prototype Where and how did Tony test his prototype(s) Step 5: Modify and re-test the prototype How did Tony modify his prototype to make it work better? Step 5A: Use and/or sell the product Did he use or sell his Iron Man armor? How did he use it?

-From the “Ironman” movies EDP in the Movies -From the “Ironman” movies Step 5: Modify and re-test the prototype With his mark-1 prototype, Tony realized that he needed to design a way to don his armor more quickly. He improved the process with his mark-3 prototype. Video Link (51 sec): Mark-3 Suit Up Procedure He later designed a mark-5 “suitcase” prototype. Video Link (28 sec): Mark-5 Suitcase Armor
