A mini hot air balloon The scientific method is the research section of the engineering design process Stepwise process used to innovate a hot air balloon design by using scientific knowledge Stepwise process used to research how or why hot air balloons work Perform experiments on hot air balloons, read about hot air balloons, watch videos on hot air balloons Fill the hot air balloon with hot air and let it go/rise into the air After watching our hot air balloon rise we look for other ideas to make it work better AND then modify the design AND retry Design & build a hot air balloon that will stay in the air the greatest amount of time Improving upon a hot air balloon design Design a hot air balloon by drawing a picture, include dimensions, and explain how to build it Build the hot air balloon design that I came up with (designed) Observe our hot air balloon rises in the air AND see how well our idea (solution worked). Think of ideas to solve those issues/problems The 1st hot air balloon
