SCI-EL.ETS1.01

3-5 (SCI) Engineering Design
Engineering Design [ETS1]

SCI-EL.ETS1.01 Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.

Clarification Statement Refer to the Engineering Design Process in the link above for a visual flow chart. They could include an item/object either at home or school that may make life easier or more efficient.
Possible solutions to a problem are limited by available materials and resources (constraints). The success of a designed solution is determined by considering the desired features of a solution (criteria). Different proposals for solutions can be compared on the basis of how well each one meets the specified criteria for success or how well each takes the constraints into account.

SCI-EL.ETS1.02 Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

Clarification Statement Refer to the Engineering Design Process in the link above for a visual flow chart. This is a continuation of the previous standard.
Research on a problem should be carried out before beginning to design a solution. Testing solution involves investigating how well it performs under a range of likely conditions.
At whatever stage, communicating with peers about proposed solutions is an important part of the design process, and shared ideas can lead to improved designs.

Engineering Design [ETS1]

SCI-EL.ETS1.03 Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved.

Clarification Statement Refer to the Engineering Design Process in the link above for a visual flow chart. This is a continuation of the previous standard.
Tests are often designed to identify failure points or difficulties, which suggest the elements of the design that need to be improved.
Different solutions need to be tested in order to determine which of them best solves the problem, given the criteria and the constraints.

SCI-HS.ETS1.01

HS (SCI) Engineering Design
Engineering Design [ETS1]

SCI-HS.ETS1.01 Analyze a major global challenge to specify qualitative and quantitative criteria and constraints for solutions that account for societal needs and wants.

Criteria and constraints also include satisfying any requirements set by society, such as taking issues of risk mitigation into account, and they should be quantified to the extent possible and stated in such a way that one can tell if a given design meets them.
Humanity faces major global challenges today, such as the need for supplies of clean water and food or for energy sources that minimize pollution, which can be addressed through engineering. These global challenges also may have manifestations in local communities

SCI-HS.ETS1.02

HS (SCI) Engineering Design
Engineering Design [ETS1]

SCI-HS.ETS1.02 Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.

Criteria may need to be broken down into simpler ones that can be approached systematically, and decisions about the priority of certain criteria over others (tradeoffs) may be needed.

SCI-HS.ETS1.04 Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.

Both physical models and computers can be used in various ways to aid in the engineering design process. Computers are useful for a variety of purposes, such as running simulations to test different ways of solving a problem or to see which one is most efficient or economical; and in making a persuasive presentation to a client about how a given design will meet his or her needs.
