PLTW Design and Modeling

Is the first step in the design process. Includes the problem being identified, validated, and justified. The design requirements are determined and the design brief is created.

• prototype

• Valid

• define the problem

• present solution

• construct/test prototype

This step in Design process includes building the a testable prototype. Then testing it for performance/ usability/ durability, collecting the data, analyzing the date and creating a test report of the findings.

• construct/test prototype

• generate concepts

• Justifiable

• Brainstorm

• Iterative
