Engineering Fair - Invention (Design Process) Design and Problem Solving Students use the engineering design process to design and construct a product that solves a problem. Rubric Code: N7349B By lvagle Ready to use Public Rubric Subject: Engineering Type: Project Grade Levels: 6-8

Engineering Fair Project Each student will invent an object to solve a problem.
	Does Not Meet (N/A)	Partially Meets (N/A)	Meets (N/A)	Exceeds (N/A)
Brainstorm and Choose Design Students work as a team to brainstorm several designs.	Does Not Meet	Partially Meets Pre-planning included some ideas and showed ingenuity	Meets Pre-planning included several ideas and showed ingenuity	Exceeds Pre-planning included several ideas that were well thought out and showed ingenuity
Build Project Students build a model/prototype of the selected design. Students make modifications to the existing design in order to improve it. "Test & Evaluate" continues until the product is successful.	Does Not Meet	Partially Meets Student built a prototype	Meets Two prototypes were built. (One improvement was made). Model/invention solves the problem/purpose	Exceeds Multiple prototypes were built. Model/invention solves the problem/purpose well
Test & Evaluate Students test and evaluate the built model/prototype and observe how it works in order to improve it.	Does Not Meet	Partially Meets Student did not test their invention.	Meets Student figured out a way to test their invention.	Exceeds Student figured out a way to quantitatively test their invention.
Journal Journal was kept and organized. Journal entries were added each step of the way.	Does Not Meet	Partially Meets Journal was incomplete	Meets Journal Entries were added a few times/week. Journal includes: Problem Design Goal Sketches Materials List Procedure (along the way) Data (Measurable) Results Conclusion	Exceeds Journal Entries were added most days. Journal includes: Problem Design Goal Sketches Materials List Procedure (along the way) Data (Measurable) Results Conclusion
