The design cycle is a 4 step process to make or create something. First you Investigate your problem: what it is, how to solve it, ways to solve it. Then you Plan the solution, how you make it, what do you make it with, how long will it take. Then you Create the solution from your plan. Then, evaluate how you did.

The Egg Drop was a project designed to protect an egg from falling 15 feet, The only tools we were given were straws and a glue gun. Our design failed somewhat: the egg was cracked at the top but that was it. We could improve it by making a better door for the cage the egg was in. We would use the suspension idea again if we redid the project.
