Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 3.62 Set Criteria and Constraints You Can Test skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Students leave notes for the teacher outside the classroom door. Zoe is designing a box that keeps notes dry.Which option lists measurable criteria and realistic constraints for this design problem?

ACriteria: Weighs under 10 g; is the brightest color; wins a popularity vote. Constraints: Use a shoe box and plastic wrap; Box must hang on a hook; Build time is 30 minutes.

BCriteria: Keeps paper notes dry during a 1-minute spray test; Holds at least 30 notes; Feels comfortable to everyone. Constraints: Use a shoe box and plastic wrap; Box must hang on a hook; Build time is 30 minutes.

CCriteria: Keeps paper notes dry during a 1-minute spray test; Holds at least 30 notes; Slot lets notes slide in easily. Constraints: Use a shoe box and plastic wrap; Box must hang on a hook; Must work in any weather, forever.

DCriteria: Keeps paper notes dry during a 1-minute spray test; Holds at least 30 notes; Slot lets notes slide in easily. Constraints: Use a shoe box and plastic wrap; Box must hang on a hook; Build time is 30 minutes.

Solution & Explanation:The best choice gives testable criteria (Keeps paper notes dry during a 1-minute spray test; Holds at least 30 notes; Slot lets notes slide in easily) and realistic constraints (Use a shoe box and plastic wrap; Box must hang on a hook; Build time is 30 minutes). That lets students check whether the design works and whether it stays within its limits.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

It is muddy outside. Val is designing a temporary shoe cover for a short walk.Which option lists measurable criteria and realistic constraints for this design problem?

ACriteria: Weighs under 10 g; is the brightest color; wins a popularity vote. Constraints: Use a plastic bag and tape; No ties around the ankle that pinch; Build time is 5 minutes.

BCriteria: Shoe stays mostly dry after walking through a shallow tray of water; Cover stays on for 2 minutes of walking; Cover does not make the student slip. Constraints: Use a plastic bag and tape; No ties around the ankle that pinch; Must work in any weather, forever.

CCriteria: Shoe stays mostly dry after walking through a shallow tray of water; Cover stays on for 2 minutes of walking; Cover does not make the student slip. Constraints: Use a plastic bag and tape; No ties around the ankle that pinch; Build time is 5 minutes.

DCriteria: Shoe stays mostly dry after walking through a shallow tray of water; Cover stays on for 2 minutes of walking; Feels comfortable to everyone. Constraints: Use a plastic bag and tape; No ties around the ankle that pinch; Build time is 5 minutes.

Solution & Explanation:The best choice gives testable criteria (Shoe stays mostly dry after walking through a shallow tray of water; Cover stays on for 2 minutes of walking; Cover d.) and realistic constraints (Use a plastic bag and tape; No ties around the ankle that pinch; Build time is 5 minutes). That lets students check whether the design works and whether it stays within its limits.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Two goals: a paper airplane must fly far AND land in a target. Teo is designing the plane.Which option lists measurable criteria and realistic constraints for this design problem?

ACriteria: Flies at least 6 meters; Lands inside a 1-meter target circle; Works 3 throws in a row. Constraints: Use 1 sheet paper; No tape; Must work in any weather, forever.

BCriteria: Flies at least 6 meters; Lands inside a 1-meter target circle; Feels comfortable to everyone. Constraints: Use 1 sheet paper; No tape; Build time is 10 minutes.

CCriteria: Flies at least 6 meters; Lands inside a 1-meter target circle; Works 3 throws in a row. Constraints: Use 1 sheet paper; No tape; Build time is 10 minutes.

DCriteria: Weighs under 10 g; is the brightest color; wins a popularity vote. Constraints: Use 1 sheet paper; No tape; Build time is 10 minutes.

Solution & Explanation:The best choice gives testable criteria (Flies at least 6 meters; Lands inside a 1-meter target circle; Works 3 throws in a row) and realistic constraints (Use 1 sheet paper; No tape; Build time is 10 minutes). That lets students check whether the design works and whether it stays within its limits.
