Create 3-d models from sketches then dimension the models in working drawings.
Reverse Engineering Project: A project that asks students to analyze a current product by disassembling it, sketching it out, and modifying it to improve the original design.

Introduction to Engineering Design™
Uses a design development process while enriching problem­solving skills; students create and analyze models using specialized computer software.

 

Design as process is the cornerstone of all engineering professions. Professionals often use the phrase “the design process” when talking about a method by which problems are identified and solutions are generated. This sometimes suggests there is only one way to plan or problem-solve. In fact, there are a multitude of methods to design. Some are very vague, while others are quite detailed. But, they all start with a need, a problem, or a want, and follow through a series of steps or phases that result in the creation of something that serves as a solution to the need, problem, or want.
