Communicating about Engineering
1. Speaking and Listening. Divide into groups
of four or fi ve students. Each group should
choose one step in the engineering design
process. Using your textbook as a starting
point, research your topic and prepare a
report on how to thoroughly conduct that
particular step in the design process. What
information will you need? What will you
do with that information? How do you
present the information in a useful way? As
a group, deliver your presentation to the rest
of the class. Take notes while other students
give their reports. Ask questions about any
details that you would like clarifi ed.
2. Speaking. Working in a group, brainstorm
ideas for creating classroom tools (posters,
fl ash cards, and/or games, for example)
that will help your classmates learn and
remember the different types of drawings
used to communicate the solution to a
design problem. Choose the best idea(s),
then delegate responsibilities to group
members for constructing the tools and
presenting the fi nal products to the class.
3. Reading and Writing. In small groups,
read through this chapter again, and choose
one of the example problems. Brainstorm
alternative ways to solve this problem, and
use CAD software to sketch your solution.
Save your drawing fi le, and when called on
by your instructor, reopen your drawing
and present it to the class as a group.
