The Engineering Design Process
-could be applied to any STEM challenge
-could be adapted to any grade level
-could be “big” or “small”

Engineering Design Process
Ask
• What is the problem?
• What are possible solutions?
• What have others done?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Engineering Design Process
Imagine
• What are the possibilities?
• What else can be done?
• What is the best solution?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Engineering Design Process
Plan
• Is the plan possible?
• Where should I start?
• What materials are needed?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Engineering Design Process
Create
• Can a model be made?
• Have I followed the plans?
• Does it meet the goal?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Engineering Design Process
Improve
• Does it work?
• What will make it better?
• What can be done differently?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Engineering Design Process
Communicate
• Are changes needed?
• What do others think?
• Is the problem solved?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Let’s Try It!
Read a book or
article.Design and build something
to solve the problem.
Use technology to
showcase what you’ve
created.

Literacy Connection
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Ask
How can I create a flotation device to save the citizens of Chewandswallow?
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Imagine
Given these materials, sketch a few
possible solutions.
Ziploc bags, bubble wrap, popsicle
sticks, plastic water bottles, tape,
rubber bands

A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Plan
With a small group, created a detailed and budgeted plan for your flotation device.
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
Create and ImproveNow you will create, test, and improve
in a cycle until you have a flotation
device that keeps your citizen afloat
and helps her get to safety.
We will not actually build flotation devices today, but this is where
you would allow students time to create, test, and improve their
prototypes in a cycle.
A CERTIFIED S.T.E.M. SCHOOL
CommunicateShare with the group what you created.
• What was the most difficult part of this challenge?
• What was the most successful part of this challenge for you?
