Presentation Name Course Name Unit # – Lesson #.# – Lesson Name Concept Modeling Listing or mapping the concepts involved in a design or process under investigation. Example: Designing a Theme Park Perhaps the first step to designing a theme park would be to create a list of the rides, attractions, and facilities that would be included in the design. Below is a concept model Easy access to major transportation system Circular pattern of attractions A theme (fairy tale, nations, sports) Access to Emergency Medical facilities Etc.

Presentation Name Course Name Unit # – Lesson #.# – Lesson Name Physical Modeling Using physical materials to create a representation of an object or concept. Scale Model: A representation of a design that is either larger or smaller than the actual model usually intended for study purposes Mock-up: An appearance model used to present the general concept of a design. Not good enough to be a prototype Mock-ups are not identical to the final design. Mock-ups are used to show the general appearance and intended function; however, they differ from the final design in some aspect such as material or mechanical operation. Prototype: Full-scale working model of the actual design used to test and improve a design concept by making actual observations and necessary adjustments.
