Students will use the SCAMPER technique to ideate ideas for their solution to the design challenge. They will sketch their ideas with and create their first conceptual design for this design challenge. Students will need to take a picture of their design to upload the EDPL.

Now, we will ideate more solution ideas for incorporating biology in our design challenge using SCAMPER. Think about the function or mechanism you want to incorporate into your design as you complete the SCAMPER activity using the 2.5.1. SCAMPER Organizer

Conceptual Design 1

Engineering requires considering multiple solutions to a problem. These solutions can be roughly drawn or described without complete details to consider whether or not a solution is promising.

Work with your group to create Conceptual Design 1. A conceptual design is a complete design, where ideas can be either a complete design or a partial design. After making several sketches, students should evaluate the requirements for their design and update the EDPL.

Upload your conceptual design 1 to the EDPL “Ideate” tab. Add any Research Notes, if needed.
