Big Ideas
- Effective problem-solving requires generating multiple solutions and evaluating them based on specific criteria and constraints.
- Design is an iterative process that involves comparing solutions to choose the best fit for a need or want.
Essential Questions
- What makes a solution effective for a particular design problem?
- How can criteria and constraints affect the choice of a solution?
- Why is it important to consider multiple solutions when solving a problem?
- How do you compare solutions to decide which is best?
- What can we learn from solutions that do not meet all the criteria or constraints?
