Evaluate a protocol to determine if the engineering design process was

successfully applied.Key concepts/skills: Level 1: Define key vocabulary. List and explain

the steps of the engineering design process. Level 2: Evaluate a protocol to determine if/what

steps of the design process were left out. Level 3: Apply the engineering design process to

construct a prototype that meets certain specifications.
