Egg+Drop

** STEP 1: INVESTIGATE ** // a. Identify the Problem: // 1. Identify the Problem: we have to create a thing to keep our egg safe // b. Develop the Design Brief: // 2. Research, and find designs that would work for your egg drop. 3. How do you know that these resources are trustworthy? There was no way. 4. Explain why not all Internet sources are trustworthy? because they could be photoshopped. // c. Formulate a Design Specification // 5. List all the requirements you must meet to create the egg drop:


 * 1) Using the Design Cycle, create an "egg pod" that will save an egg from a 15 foot drop.
 * 2) You will have 60 straws to complete this assignment.
 * 3) You will have a few (5 - 7) glue sticks to complete this project.
 * 4) You will not receive your egg until we are outside the day we drop the eggs.
 * 5) You will not have any glue the day we drop the eggs.
 * 6) Create a new page on your wiki and name it "Egg Drop" - your entire Design Folder should be posted on this page. Copy and paste the Design Folder onto your new page.

6. Why is it important to test your egg drop before the final “drop”?to test if its safe or not 7. How does making an egg drop apply to a real world situation?how to prep for something you dont know how to do ** STEP 2: PLAN ** // a. Design a Product or Solution: // 8. Create three completely different designs using the Brainstorming Chart.

// b. Plan a Product or Solution: // <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">9. Which design do you think will work best? A the outside box. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">10. Why did you choose this design? I just liked it and it seemed efficient. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">11. On the back of your brainstorming paper, draw your final draft. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">12. Plan how you will get the entire project finished by May 11. (I will help you with this step!) <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">** STEP 3: CREATE ** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">// a. Use Appropriate Techniques and Equipment: // <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">13. List three safety tips you need to follow to while creating your egg drop:keep the egg safe make it so you can have hard boiled eggs <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">14. Were you nice, respective, responsible, and did you have a good attitude?

Follow the Plan: // <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">15. Did you follow your plan? yes I did. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">16. Did you create steps in your plan that were easy to follow? yes <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">17. Did you follow my requirements? yes <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">// c. Create the Product/Solution: // <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">18. What areas of your plan needed troubleshooting? The box turned into a house. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">** STEP 4: EVALUATE ** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">// a. Evaluate the Product/Solution: // <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">19. Was your design successful? Somewhat <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000080; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 20.8px;">20. How could you improve your solution?
