- I can explain why a selected solution is most suitable based on evidence. #dok3
Big Ideas
- There are often multiple ways to solve a design problem, but not all solutions are equally effective.
- Evaluating possible solutions based on specific criteria and constraints helps identify the best choice.
Essential Questions
- What are different ways to solve a design problem?
- How do criteria and constraints influence which solution is best?
- Why is it important to compare different solutions?
- How can you decide which solution works best for a given problem?
- What evidence should be used when selecting a final solution?
