1. An sporting company designs, builds, and sells whistles to be used by referees and coaches. This company wants to redesign their whistles so that they are louder so that players can clearly hear the whistle during a noisy game. After the company comes up with several design ideas, what is the next logical step for them to take?
2. A technology company has identified the need for a smaller laptop computer that weighs less, but they do not have enough knowledge about how to build it. What would be the next logical step engineers would take to design and produce this laptop computer?
3. What equipment measures weight?
4. What are the units for weight?
5. A student wants to test how the concentration of phosphorus in a fertilizer affects plant growth. In designing this experiment the independent variable would most likely be the...?

Engineering Design Process-Prototype Testing
The 4th step in the eng. design process is testing your prototype Often, the prototype does not work very well at first Testing a prototype can be dangerous (see picture below) By testing the prototype, the designers find problems to fix They fix the problems and then test it again. They repeat this
over & over. (This is step 5 of the eng design process.)
Here is a picture of Orville and Wilbur Wright testing their prototype airplane
Notes Science
SPI 0807.T/E.1 (Prototype Testing)
The procedures and tools for testing a prototype are dependent upon the type of technology and the purpose for that technology.
For Example: You would not test a new cell phone the same way you would test a new jet airplane or a new football helmet.
Discuss These Questions:A) How would you test a prototype of a new type of eyeglasses?B) How would you test a prototype of a new type of headache medicine?C) How would you test a prototype of a new type of camping tent?

Prototype Testing in the Movies-From the movie "Batman Begins"
Story summary: Billionaire Bruce Wayne's parents are murdered by a criminalwhen he is boy. So he vows to fight crime as a vigilante when hegrows to manhood. Yet he has no superpowers, so he insteaduses technology devices to enable him to fulfill his mission.
