PURPOSE
EVALUATION:
The students will not be formally evaluated for this work. It is purely
completion and for practice.
As the students complete the activity associated with each step, they will
then move on and compare their work with either the work I have done or
the template solution I have provided.
By comparing what they have done to what I have provided, the students
can get a sense of where they are as far as understanding the steps.
Once the students are finished with the 6 steps, they will have to answer
10 multiple choice questions over the design process.
LAST
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Given this a brief description of the design process and its steps, students
will be able to apply all six steps to a specific given problem.
Given the requirements for a design brief, students should be able to
create one with all of the required part.
Given the completion of each step, students should be able to create a
project portfolio and include all of the specified parts.
LAST
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT:
Students will be using this interactive PowerPoint on a computer at home
and may use the help of the internet.
Students who do not have computers at home can schedule times to
complete the PowerPoint in the labs at the school.
This PowerPoint includes sound and therefor may require headphones at
school.
LAST
TARGET AUDIENCE:
10-12 grade students who can read and write at a high school level.
Public or private high school.
Class size does not matter. Number of computers is the only restraint.
Mix of demographics.

Instructions
Start at step one and read each step in order
After a description of the step, you will have to complete the instructions by inserting text
into the open box.
Complete all steps in order.
Some steps will include my example to see how it compares.
If you want to change what you wrote, simply select last from the How does it Compare
section.
As you finish with a section, check off the designated box.
At the end of step 6, you will be asked if you are finished or select end presentation from
the home page.
From here, you will be asked to answer 10 multiple choice questions to assess what you
have learned.

PROBLEM:
Example problem:
A teacher needs to separate 15 marbles into three different bins according to
their color. We had FischerTechnik kits in the back with motors, sensors, and
a programmable CPU. We had two weeks to design, create and program a
working solution.
Your problem:
A client comes to you and asks if you can help solve his squirrel problem. He
says that squirrels are ripping holes in trash bags and making a mess by
getting into the trashcan and eating/fighting/mating. He needs a solution that
can be implemented almost immediately that is cost effective and humane.

CORRECT:
Good job!
Step 1: Define the Problem
To properly understand the
problem, you need to know the
limitations that you have on your
solution so that you dont waste
time creating useless solutions

OVERALL ASSESSMENT:
Question 2: What would be the last document that you create?
Decision Matrix
Design Brief
Test Report
Project Portfolio
FALSE:

If necessary, go back to the
home screen to review the
material.
LAST
CORRECT:
Good job!
The Project Portfolio is an organized
collection of all the work done on
the solution, from start to finish, so
while you might start putting it
together from the beginning, it
cannot be completed until
everything else has.
