    State the Problem:
    In the first step of the informed design the designer describes the problem clearly.
    The specifications for a design problem are the performance requirements, that the solution
    must fulfill.    		 10 9-8 7 6 or less    
    Design Brief states the problem and lists the
     specifications for design. Constraints are the
    limits that often relate to resources, such as what
     kind of materials the designer can use, the cost of
     the final product and the time required. Other
    limitations often relate to the number and skill
    requirements of workers and the effects on the
     environment.     		 10 9-8 7 6 or less    
    Generate possible solutions- Sketch and Label. Most problems have more than one solution. You should always develop many design ideas even though you may want to grab onto the first idea that comes into your head. 10 9-8 7 6 or less    
    Select & Justify your best solution. Fits within the desgn constraints and has the least number of negative characteristics . Good design solutions are those that work well, are cost efficient, and cause minimal or no harm to the envirornment or to people.  They meet ALL of the design requirements and are within all constraints. 10 9-8 7 6 or less    
    Impliment the Solution Build (Describe this process in paragraph form) During the design process, drawing and modeling of the proposed solution are made in order to work out any design problems before the product is put into production. 10 9-8 7 6 or less
