Ask  Brainstorm  Plan  Approval  Create  Improve   What is the problem you are trying to solve? › What materials do you have? › What is your time frame?  How will you test your design?  What are some solutions to your problem?  Take all group members ideas into account! Every member of a team has valuable input, so it is to your advantage to listen to everybody.  Make a sketch of your idea.  Engineers use software such as SolidWorks and COMSOL to model their designs.  In a sketch it is important to specify dimensions and materials.  Get approval to make a prototype from your client.  Make a pitch for why your design is the best solution to the problem!  Build and test a prototype of your design. › Engineers will often test their prototype in a test environment.  Record the results of your test.  Did your design fail or succeed?  What worked, what didn’t?  What would you do differently  Should you try a new design, or improve on your original design?  Engineers go through many cycles of the EDP before they come out with a finished product that they can pitch to investors or clients  In the EDP you are always jumping back to previous steps to rework things that are not working out. HELP! Your wonderful Artemis coordinators are stuck at the top of a cliff. They will be eaten by wolves within the hour.  There is a zipline leading off the cliff. However there is nothing for them to ride down on.  You must follow the EDP to make a ‘cart’ that your coordinators can ride to safety on. 
