Define the need with measurable objectives, 4. Brainstorm alternative solutions 5. Select the best solution to meet the objectives 6. Design, fabricate, and assemble prototype. 7. Test the prototype, 8. Compare the results to the objectives. This class will present problems and allow the students to work in groups to define, design, build and test the solutions. Students will learn to weigh alternative options, collect and analyze data, and assess the design using the data and objectives. Students are expected to transfer skills and knowledge learned in this course to units of instruction they develop for K-12 education.
