  2. 1. Engineering Design • Central Concepts: Engineering design involves practical problem solving, research, development, and invention/innovation, and requires designing, drawing, building, testing, and redesigning. Students should demonstrate the ability to use the engineering design process to solve a problem or meet a challenge. Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  3. Standard 1.1 1.1 Identify and explain the steps of the engineering design process: identify the problem, research the problem, develop possible solutions, select the best possible solution(s), construct prototypes and/or models, test and evaluate, communicate the solutions, and redesign. Identify the problem Research the problem Redesign Communicate the solutions Develop solutions Select the best solution Test and evaluate Construct a prototype Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  4. Step 1 Identify the problem Write down the original problem here. Student - Design, build and program a robot to: compete in the sumo bot challenge What constraints have been placed on your team? (Deadlines, resources etc.) We must have our 1st prototype done by the 17th of January Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  5. Step 2 Research the problem Explore other options via the internet Student: List the internet sites that were helpful. Site 1 http://nxtprograms.com/mini_sumo/index.html Site 2 http://drgraeme.net/DrGraeme-free-NXT-G-tutorials/Ch46/SUMO-G/default.htm Site 3 http://mrcrokesrobotics.weebly.com What did you learn from your research? A Use a wall or a battering ram to harm opponents B Use at least two powered wheels C large wheels are useful to propel robot Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  6. Step 3 Develop solutions BRAINSTORM COLLABORATION • Student : Share your ideas with your design team. List your ideas below. • Wall on the front of the robot • Claw • Shield and battering ram Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  7. Step 4 Select the best Possible solution(s) Student: Describe which solution(s) best meet the need or solve the problem. Describe exactly what idea or mixture of ideas your design team decided on for the first robot prototype? Use the next slide for your response. Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  8. The Somerset Berkley writing rubric will be used for assessment. Student : Skillfully and imaginatively describe what your first prototype will look like. Lauren Marques Our prototype will include a wall/shield that will protect it during the competition. We decided to gear down the robot and it could move quickly away in the ring. We attempted to put a “battering ram” type of weapon on the back to use during the competition. Our robot will be more of a defensive type with the wall as well. We will also add something extra on the back to reinforce the wheels.

  9. Ashley Frank: Our robot will be a more compact and speedy design. We will include a wall/barricade in the front for defense against our competitors. With our large gears acting on the smaller ones, our robot will be able to quickly evade other robots trying to push us out of the ring. The motors for our robot will be placed beneath it so we have more room to add parts as needed in the front.

  10. Miranda C We geared down our robot to make it go faster. We have a barricade on the front of it that also can flip our opponents. We have two big wheels in the back of it and one in the front. I think our robot will be very successful.

  11. Step 5 Construct a prototype Build a robot with your NXT lego kit Create a computer program for your robot. Use the next slide(s) for the digital pictures of your prototypes and computer programs. Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  12. Step 5 evidence 1st Prototype picture and computer program

  13. Step 6 Test and Evaluate the solution(s) • Does your robot work? Yes • Did it perform as expected? For the most part • What changes are necessary for the robot and the program? We had to Fix the wheels and change the claw • Does it meet the original design constraints? Yes • Is it safe?Yes • Lab work- Modify your robot project and use the next slide to post a picture of your improved robot project. Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  14. Step 6 evidence 1st modified prototype picture and computer program

  15. Step 6 evidence 2nd modified prototype picture and computer program

  16. Step 7 Communicate the solution(s) Provide the YouTube link of your video that shows how your robot meets the challenge. YouTube video link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXdL4gmlM1I Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  17. Redesign Overhaul the solution(s) based on information gathered during testing and self-assessment activity. We took off the gears on the motors so the robot was able to turn and move better. Ma.Science and Engineering Framework 2006

  18.  •   Demonstrate the ability to use technology for research, critical thinking, problem solving, decision making, communication, collaboration, creativity, and innovation.
