Testing Observations:
Does your Device function like you expected? YES NO
If you answered “YES” - Congratulations! You will score well on the Challenge Rubric. You may now
move on to other lessons.
If you answered “NO” - Use your observations above and the Rubric to determine what problem
needs troubleshooting next, then use another copy of this Idea Book Page to help solve that
problem. Keep repeating this “THINK - DO - TEST” process with troubleshooting pages, until your
device functions correctly.
Follow through with your solution and MAKE PLANNED CHANGES to your device, then TEST and OBSERVE.
Remember: Problems ARE NOT failures, they are an expected part of the design process!
