6. 1.2. STAGES IN THE TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS
1. NEED: we have to study the need to be satisfied and to look at similar cases and their results. We have to search for INFORMATION

7. 2. Idea
a) individual analysis and solution for the problem: we have to propose one or several solutions

8. b) Making a group decision: each solution is presented to the group and one of them is selected. We have to choose the best solution

9. 3. Develop idea
We need plans and working sheets, measurements, tools, materials, estimate of costs, a time frame…

10. 4. Construction
We follow the assembly process that we´ve previously planned to make our product.

11. 5. Check
Verification and evaluation: we must evaluate the final result of each project and the impact that our project has on the economy, society and the environment. And…we have to write a report!

Companies use advertising campaigns to sell their products. Sometimes they can be so agressive that we pay inflated prices for the products.
