What is the engineering design process?
- A random approach to problem-solving
- A single step approach to solving problems
- A series of steps that guides engineering teams as they solve problems (correct)
- A linear process that does not involve iteration
What does 'iterative' mean in the context of the engineering design process?
What does 'iterative' mean in the context of the engineering design process?
- Completing each step only once and then finalizing the solution
- Following the steps in a fixed sequence without any changes
- Repeating the steps as many times as needed, making improvements along the way (correct)
