Assessing the Commercial Viability of a Design 评估设计的商业可行性

Give your students the opportunity to walk around the class and view everyone else models. Then once they have had a chance to do a walk through break students into groups to discuss the pros and cons of each others designs.

让学生去看看其他人建造的模型，然后，将学生分成小组，讨论彼此的优缺点。

There are lots of things that the students can discuss when reviewing each others‘ floor-plans. For instance, would they want to buy this apartment? Why or why not? Is the layout effective or are there things that should be changed? Did the student who created the designs calculate the area properly? Use evidence support your claim.

此过程中学生可以讨论很多事情，如他们会想买这套公寓吗？为什么？布局是否有效，或者是否有需要更改的内容？面积是否计算正确？

Although students in the Foundations of STEM program will most likely complete their enlarged schematics using pencil and paper, these designs from the Engineering Design course build on these skill sets by introducing students to Computer Aided Design (CAD) as a tool to help them perfect their designs.

尽管STEM基础课程学生可以使用铅笔和纸完成放大的示意图，也可向学生介绍计算机辅助设计（CAD）帮助他们后期在工程设计课中得到一些练习。
