Step 1: Identify the Problem

Step 2: Generate Concepts

Step 2B: Do Research

Step 3: Make a Hypothesis

Step 2A: Ask a Question

Iterative

Step 1: Make observations about the natural world

Engineering Design Process

Step 4: Perform the Experiment

Scientific Method

Step 5: Analyze the Results

Step 6: Write/Draw Conclusions

Step of the Eng Design Process that this is: Performing the lab on Mass of Car vs. Speed

Step of the Eng Design Process that this is: Design and build a mousetrap car that travels 1 tile in the fastest time

Step of the scientific method where we identified this from looking at the picture of the MT Car: How does the mass of the car affect how fast the car takes to travel 1 meter?

Step of the scientific method where answered the question How does the mass of the car affect how fast the car takes to travel 1 meter? BEFORE performing the experiment

Step of the scientific method where we changed the mass of the mousetrap car AND observed/recorded which went faster

Step of the scientific method where answered the question How does the mass of the car affect how fast the car takes to travel 1 meter? AFTER performing the experiment

Step of the scientific method where we look over the results of the experiment on mass of the mousetrap car versus speed

Used to innovate the mousetrap car design.

A process that repeats a series of steps over and over

Step of the scientific method where we learned about gravity and mass in this experiment

Step of the scientific method where we looked at a picture of mousetrap car

Used to perform the experiment on Mass of car vs. Speed
