SPI 0807.T/E.1 Identify the tools and procedures needed to test the design features of a prototype. SPI 0807.T/E.2 Evaluate a protocol to determine if the engineering design process was successfully applied. I CAN… Define technology and engineering. Describe the steps of the engineering design process. Evaluate the prototype for effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis. Objective
Technology (#84): The products and processes that are designed to serve our needs. • Cell phones, computers, GPS, pencil • Engineering (#31): the process of creating technology. I can define technology and engineering. Technology & Engineering
Social • Faster and better communication • Political • Improve government needs • Economic • Create less expensive materials I can describe the steps of the engineering design process. I can evaluate the prototype for effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis. Technology and Society
The process engineers use to develop a new technology. • Similar to the scientific method • Some steps may need to be repeated or modified. I can describe the steps of the engineering design process. Engineering Design Process (#32)
ASK: Identifying and Researching a Need • IMAGINE: Developing Possible Solutions • Brainstorming ideas • PLAN: Making a Prototype(#75) (a test model of a product) • CREATE: Testing and Evaluating • cost-benefit analysis: determining if the cost is worth the benefit. • IMPROVE: Modifying and Retesting the Solution • Modify the prototype or try a new solution I can describe the steps of the engineering design process. I can evaluate the prototype for effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis. Steps to the EDP
I can describe the steps of the engineering design process. I can evaluate the prototype for effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis.
SPI 0807.T/E.3 Distinguish between the intended benefits and the unintended consequences of a new technology. SPI 0807.T/E.4 Differentiate between adaptive and assistive engineered products (e.g., food, biofuels, medicines, integrated pest management). I CAN… Identify the intended benefits and unintended consequences of a new technology. Differentiate between adaptive and assistive bioengineered products. OBjectives
I can identify the intended benefits and unintended consequences of a new technology. Benefits and consequences • Intended benefits(#46): the positive purpose for which a technology is designed to be used. • What was the intended benefit of a cell phone? • Unintended Consequences (#85): uses or results that engineers do not purposely include in the design of products. • Can be positive or negative • What are the unintended consequences of a cell phone?
The application of engineering to living things. I can differentiate between adaptive and assistive bioengineered products. Bioengineering (#13)
A product or process that helps living organisms but does not change them permanently. Examples • Hearing aid • Eyeglasses/contacts • Prosthetic limbs • Sterilized bandages I can differentiate between adaptive and assistive bioengineered products. Assistive bioengineering (#6)
A product or process that changes living organisms. Examples Cochlear implant LASIK Genetically modified plants Ethanol (made from corn) I can differentiate between adaptive and assistive bioengineered products. Adaptive bioengineering (#3)
