According to the engineering design process, place each step in the correct order.

Define and analyze a problem.
Communicate your solution to others.
Design a solution by breaking down the problem into manageable pieces.
Test and improve solutions and evaluate best fit based on effectiveness, constraints, and feedback.

Engineers have powerful jobs and can design technology that can help or harm the world. Even useful technology can have negative consequences. Which of these is a negative effect associated with potential new technology?

Consider the image. How would you best define the problem the engineer is trying to solve?

The scientific method, while it shares some similarities with the engineering design process, is not the same thing. Review this infographic to compare the steps of the scientific method with the engineering design process.
