Development should include
- analyzing the problem
- planning and designing a functional system
- identifying components (e.g., input, output, process, hardware, software)
- building a model
- programming the model
- explaining the program and mechanical features of the model.
Process/Skill Questions:
- How does a computer, microcontroller, or programmable logic controller control an output device?
- What are the unique features of the program and model solution?
- If the target is not met, how can one redesign the solution to improve its performance?
- How can one justify the efficiency of the solution?
