Invention
Step 5: Test the Prototype
Step 2: Research the Problem
Prototype Hot Air Balloon
Step 7: Re-Design your Solution
Step 3: Develop a Solution
How the scientific method is related to the engineering design process
Innovation
Scientific Method
Engineering Design Process
Step 4: Build a Prototype
Step 1: Define the Problem
Step 6: Evaluate the Solution
Observe our hot air balloon rises in the air AND see how well our idea (solution worked). Think of ideas to solve those issues/problems
The scientific method is the research section of the engineering design process
What we designed/built in class. A mini hot air balloon
Design & build a hot air balloon that will stay in the air the greatest amount of time
Stepwise process used to research how or why hot air balloons work
After watching our hot air balloon rise we look for other ideas to make it work better AND then modify the design AND retry
Design a hot air balloon by drawing a picture, include dimensions, and explain how to build it
Perform experiments on hot air balloons, read about hot air balloons, watch videos on hot air balloons
The 1st hot air balloon
Build the hot air balloon design that I came up with (designed)
Improving upon a hot air balloon design
Stepwise process used to innovate a hot air balloon design by using scientific knowledge
Fill the hot air balloon with hot air and let it go/rise into the air
