The final phase of the engineering design process is to improve. This is the step where changes are made to the original model to come up with the best solution. Don Higdon says the most important idea for students to take away is that this is a process that can be applied to any problem.
The fifth phase of the engineering design process is to experiment. Don Higdon explains that students should select one variable to test. The important thing is that the students do the experiments, measure, record and ask how to improve their design.
The fourth phase of the engineering design process is to create. Don Higdon says to emphasize teamwork and follow the plan.
The third phase of the engineering design process is to plan. Students should pick one promising idea and then develop a plan. Don Higdon explains how sketching is the best way to decide how to build a design.
The second phase of the engineering design process is to imagine. Students should brainstorm to come up with a wide range of ideas or solutions to their problem. Don Higdon models how to work through this phase.
The first step of the engineering design process is to ask. Engineers must define the problem and understand what to work on. Don Higdon explains how to guide students through an activity to explore this first step.
Don Higdon explains why NASA needs engineers and discusses the purpose of the engineering design process video series created for NASA BEST. He lists the steps in the Boston Museum of Science engineering design process — ask, imagine, plan, create, experiment and improve. He concludes by showing a simple hands-on experiment for students.
This Marble Mouse is an amazing toy from China. Fold the cut-out of the Marble Mouse from a card sheet. Insert a marble in its elliptical tummy hole. The mouse is all ready to roll. Place it on a book with the marble down. As you tilt the book the mouse will roll round and round.
Make a very beautiful butterfly using colorful magazine paper. The wings of the butterfly are made by crimping paper. Then join two pairs of wings and stick them to the card body to complete the butterfly. You can hang this beautiful butterfly with a thread on the wall.
