This learning resource provides a structured approach to an Engineering Design Challenge where students must apply the engineering design process within a constrained budget. The objective is to enhance teamwork, creative problem-solving, and resource management skills as students work together to address a design problem. The process consists of five key steps: Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, and Improve, each emphasizing critical thinking and strategic decision-making regarding budget constraints. Students will develop team roles, sketch designs, plan material purchases, and assess their prototypes through testing and reflection, drawing parallels to real-world engineering practices.
