…is different from the scientific method, but uses the same tools …includes a design phase, testing phase, and production phase.

EDP is used to develop technology products and/or solutions.

Engineering Design Process (EDP)

(Step 5A)Use/Sell the product

(Step 2A)Pick the best design

(Step 1A)Do research about

this technology

Billionaire genius and weapons designer Tony Stark is captured by terrorists, and they want him to build a super-weapon. Instead he builds an armored exoskeleton to fight them.

1st PrototypeMark 1 Version

3rd PrototypeMark 3 Version

Prototypes are often called mark versions

3rd PrototypeMark 3 Version

2nd PrototypeMark 2 Version

1st PrototypeMark 1 Version

Step 1: Identify a need Why did Tony Stark build the "Iron Man" suit?

Step 1A: Do Research about the technology Did Tony do any research first?

Step 2: Develop Possible Solutions What are some other options he could have built instead?

Step 2A: Pick the best design Do you think the "Iron Man" suit was the best design?

Step 3: Make a prototype Where and how did Tony build his prototype(s)Step 4: Test the prototype Where and how did Tony test his prototype(s)Step 5: Modify and re-test the prototype How did Tony modify his prototype to make it work better?

Step 5A: Use and/or sell the product Did Tony sell his Iron Man armor? How did he use it?
