Science Ch. 2! Note: This is a great review for your upcoming Science test and contains most, but not all, of the information on your study guide!
VocabularyDesign ProcessTechnologyMore Design ProcessEngineering To final Jeopardy
These are standards that help engineers measure how well their design is doing its job Click for answer
Criteria Back to the board
This is a working model used to test an invention
Prototype
This is any device that people use to meet their needs and solve practical problems
Technology
These two subjects are used by engineers to find solutions to everyday problems
Math and science
What would you call someone who, as part of their job, engineers plants to grow faster?
Bioengineer
This is the first step of the design process
Find a problem
This is the second step of the design process
Plan and build
This is the third step of the design process
Test and improve
This is the fourth step of the design process
Redesign
This is the fifth and final step in the design process
Communicate
Why does technology change?
Technology changes to meet the needs of people
DAILY DOUBLE
Describe how changes in transportation have affected communication over long distances
As transportation became faster, communication became faster. Letters that were carried by train took less time to be delivered than those carried by stagecoach.
The fact that a piece of technology, like a computer, could be hacked is an example of a _____.
risk
Name one type of technology and tell how it has changed to meet people’s needs.
Various possible responses.
Name a type of technology and give both a benefit and risk.
Various possible answers
In this step of the design process, engineers share their results orally and in written reports
Step 5: Communicate
In this step of the design process, engineers choose the solution they think is most practical and build a working model.
Step 2: Plan and build
In this step of the design process, engineers may decide that they need to adjust the design.
Step 4: Redesign
In this step of the design process, engineers test a prototype. The data often reveal areas that need improvement.
Step 3: Test and improve
In this step of the design process, engineers must first identify a need, or a problem to be solved.
Step 1: Find a problem
This is what you would call an engineer who works with living things.
Bioengineer
DAILY DOUBLE
This is what you call the things bioengineers design that helps detect or treat diseases or replace human body parts such as the heart.
Biotechnology
When bioengineers apply the engineering design process to living things
Bioengineering
These people help people who are missing a body part by designing one that is similar
Prosthetic designer
These are the two fields that bioengineering primarily deals with
Health and nutrition
FINAL JEOPARDY
Prosthetics and Design Write down how much you want to use on this question, fold it up and give it to the person running the game.
A bioengineer wants to design a prosthesis to replace a knee for a former runner. With your team: 1. Name one criteria the design should meet. 2. List the steps of the design process and tell what you would do at each step. Include a drawn prototype. When you test in Step 3, you find that in cold weather, the knee gets harder to bend.
Various possible responses.
