1. foundations of engineering design I Class 8 – Sep 13 Product Archaeology Introduction

2. today’s plan comments on Olympic cauldron submit competency assignments IRB letters sit with your new teams warm up brainstorming activities examining and categorizing systems thinking assignments & announcements

3. engineering our daily lives

4. let’s pretend we’re stranded on a desert island

6. as an engineer, you are a problem solver what are the things you would first design/make to help you survive?

7. one of your fellow castaways is a dentist dental hygiene ranks atop her list of “must- haves”

8. what on the island could you use to take care of your teeth and gums?

9. reporting out share your team’s best idea and wackiest idea for the dental- hygiene related question

10. follow-up discussion are there locations/cultures for which some of your suggestions are reality? what did we do before the tools we use today were available?

11. reminder… engineering is all around us embedded in many products we use everyday is a set of cultural norms that influence why they were made the way they are

12. Sparky Dental Industries (SDI)

13. SDI Wants Us To… engage in a process to analyze what we use for dental hygiene How much does it cost? How are the “tools” made? What are they made out of? Why was it made that way?

14. Let’s get started… get out your toothbrushes

15. in your teams describe your toothbrushes (what are they made of? how many bristles to they have? etc.) what are the differences between them (functionally, aesthetically, etc.)? if your toothbrush is still in packaging, think about that part too.

16. reporting out share highlights from your teams findings

17. categorizing what are some groupings of toothbrushes we have in class? work together to move the toothbrushes around and into their groups

18. engineers solve problems in multiple ways! develop a new set of groupings and move toothbrushes into those groups. how would you describe the new collections?

19. some paperwork items 1.consent forms 2.competency assignment #1 is coming back now grades on blackboard what do those letters on top mean? what are competency points?

20. engineers are systems thinkers we’ve talked about the toothbrushes is there more to the dental health industry than just that?

21. in your teams, map out all the stakeholders in the dental hygiene industry how do they relate to each other?

22. assignments Competency Assignment CA 4: Prototype (9/18) now posted on blackboard under assignments  competency assignments Practice Assignments PA 7: Document your own process (9/18) PA 8: Read / comment on an article (9/20) now posted on blackboard under assignments  practice assignments don’t forget: follow instructions, submit work on time, type responses, put your name
