Big Ideas
- There can be many possible solutions to a design problem, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.
- Comparing solutions using criteria and constraints helps engineers and designers choose the best possible solution.
Essential Questions
- How do engineers identify different ways to solve a problem?
- What are criteria and constraints, and why are they important in solving problems?
- How can we compare different solutions to see which is best?
- Why is it important to consider more than one solution to a problem?
- How do criteria and constraints influence the solutions we choose?
