WRITTEN PLANIdentify the Problem• Demonstrate research/background of the problem, including work done by others• Discuss and clarify constraints• What was the main goal/mission?
Brainstorming• Discuss the creative and decision-making processes• Show the various ideas considered to solve the problem• Explain why selected approach was taken and why other ideas were not chosen
Model or Prototype• Describe in detail, paint a picture; list materials used (including cost) • Present compelling plan for the prototype would function and be used• Identify how safety and protocol was observed and followed
Test Model and Evaluate• Discuss troubleshooting, testing, and redesigning through all iterations• Discuss strengths and weaknesses of design • Discuss modifications/refinements made to improve/adjust the design • Share test results, explain if/how design effectively addresses the problem
Collaboration• Discuss how the team worked on the project• Communicate how each member contributed

PROTOTYPE CONSIDERATIONS
• Rough model of your solution• Smaller in size = better (needs to be transported)
• Think about presentation: space, power, safety, noise, etc.
• Can be made from reused and repurposed items• Cardboard, household supplies, recycling bin items, etc.
• Resource usage and reusability considerations
• Can be made in a fab-lab or makerspace • Great idea, but not a requirement
• If it’s not functional…• Students need to explain how it could work
• And explain why they were unable to make it work
• If your prototype is fully functioning, even better!
