1. What is some prior knowledge that we can tap on to respond to the
Driving Question? How to verify Information online/Articles if they are valid. Accessing Credibility of information.
2. What are the considerations when responding to the Driving Question? The definition of the word and how it was created. What is the range of engineering? What is the difference between engineers nowadays and the former engineers? human-made means both big and small inventions
3. What are the assumptions we need to make in order to propose a feasible approach in responding to Driving Question? Engineering is the process of designing and inventions. The result of engineering provides convenience to people. With the definition provided, Designer of a clever invention.
4. What are the resources needed to respond to this Driving Question? Using online search engine. Other Definitions/Meanings of Engineering.
5. Where can we find reliable and credible resources? We can find from the website that given by the facilitator
6. How do our resources enhance and develop our responses to the Driving Question? We will have a better understanding on the meaning/understanding of the driving question.
7. What possible artifacts can best represent our responses to the Driving Question? Credible Articles by Professional Authors/Experts in that area.
Analysis:
8. What is the purpose of analysis? To check on how accurate is the given definition of engineering.
9. What are the major question and sub-questions for our analysis? Major Question ~ Is the given Definition of Engineering Accurate. Sub Questions ~ Past & Present Definition of engineering / Range of Engineering /
10. What are the relevant factors to consider when responding to the Driving Question? Consider how it was derived. Information they used to make the definition. Is the information still credible now.
11. What are the linkages/relationships between our considerations and resources? Our considerations will affect what we will research/resources.
12. Which approach to analysis (atomistic or holistic) should we adopt in order to respond to the Driving Question? Holistic, We have to consider many other factors instead of just one major factor. By doing this, we will have a more accurate answer.
13. How do the chosen artefacts represent our responses to the Driving Question?
Inference: 14. What information can we infer from the resources we have on hand? http://www.cra.org/ccc/files/docs/presentations/penn.pdf (informations on how engineer improve our life)
15. What conclusion can we draw based on the analysis done on the resources? Engineering improves our life
16. What possible inferences can be drawn from the chosen artefacts?
17. What are the implications of our responses to the Driving Question?
Argument:
What are the different responses shared within the team? How can we relate the different responses of the team members to form a coherent E-portfolio? How well do our chosen response/artefacts answer the Driving Question? How can we build sound and/or cogent arguments for our response to the Driving Question? Have we made any fallacies in our arguments?
